ORDER
This petition for review of the judgment dated 28/05/2019 has been filed not because there is any error apparent on it, but because the petitioners have not been pay off the amounts as per the directions therein.
2. Learned counsel for the petitioners, Shri.R.Anilkumar, submitted that even though his clients have not paid off the entire amount as ordered in the judgment, they have remitted substantial sums and that they are willing to pay off the balance overdue in the loan account, so as to have it regularized, within a period of three weeks from today. He prayed that the Bank be directed to give his clients this latitude.
3. Shri.R.S.Kalkura, learned Standing Counsel appearing for the respondent - Bank, affirmed that the petitioners have made some payments, but submitted that the directions in RP.No.990 OF 2020 IN WP(C).12653/2019 3 the judgment have not been complied with fully. He, however, added that if the petitioners are willing to regularize the loan account, by paying the balance overdues as on today with all applicable charges and interest, he will not stand in the way of this Court granting them such benefit, taking note of the present COVID-19 pandemic disruptions.
In the afore circumstances, I order this review petition and modify the judgment to the limited extent of permitting the petitioners to pay off the balance overdue in the loan account, along with all applicable charges and interest, so as to have it regularized, on or before 29/01/2021.
In all other respects, the judgment will remain unaltered.
