JUDGMENT
The petitioners in these four Writ Petitions are common. The
petitioners are husband and wife. They availed four separate loans
from the 1st respondent bank and on default being committed, the
bank initiated proceedings under Section 69 of the Kerala
Cooperative Societies Act, 1969 and obtained awards determining
the liability of the petitioners.
2. It is submitted by the learned counsel appearing for the
respondent bank that as on 24.03.2025, the total outstanding in
respect of the all four loans put together is Rs.91,79,344/-
3. The learned counsel appearing for the petitioners would
submit that since the Navakeraleeyam Kudishika Nivarana Padhathi
2025-2026 is presently in force, the petitioners may be permitted to
approach the bank for settlement under the said scheme.
Having heard the learned counsel appearing for the
petitioners and the learned counsel appearing for the respondent
bank, these writ petitions stand disposed of directing that if
WP(C)NO.10369 OF 2025
& CONNECTED CASES : 10: 2026:KER:2682
petitioners would make an application for settlement of the
liabilities in terms of the provisions contained in the
Navakeraleeyam Kudishika NivaranaPadhathi 2025-2026 within a
period of ten days from today, the said application shall be
considered by the competent authority and the decision of the
competent authority shall be communicated to the petitioners. If
the petitioners are granted One Time Settlement, they shall duly
and faithfully abide by the terms of settlement. If the petitioners
fail to abide by the terms of settlement, it is open for the
respondent bank to continue with the recovery proceedings
initiated against the petitioners.
