Tribunal on 24.07.2017. Hence, there is no embargo in plaintiff seeking recovery of atleast the admitted arrears. The money claimed being a statutory liability, I do no think that the applicant/defendant should be allowed to contest the suit without showing its bonafidees or its ability to pay up in the event the suit is decreed.
