JUDGMENT
Dated this the 12th day of March 2021
The learned counsel for the petitioner had deposited
substantial amount with 3rd respondent-Co-operative Bank
evidenced by Ext. P2 series. Some amounts are in deposit
in the SB account evidenced by Ext.P1. According to the
petitioner, though the Fixed Deposits had matured, the
amount has not been released. He requires the money for
meeting the urgent medical requirements.
2. When the matter was taken up, the learned
Standing Counsel appearing for the 2nd and 3rd respondents
submitted that, the total amount due is Rs. 2,95,000/-
which the bank is ready to pay at least in 10 installments.
3. Having heard both sides, I am inclined to direct
that the entire amount covered by Exts. P1 and P2 series
shall be paid to the petitioner with accrued interest in eight
equal monthly installments commencing from 20.04.2021. WP(C).No.4539 OF 2021(N)
If default is committed by the bank, the petitioner will be
free to recover the amounts by due process of law.
