Mrs. V. Dyumani, Standing Counsel for Respondent No.2 / Bank. *** LISA GILL, J. 1. Faced with the factum of petitioner having efficacious, alternative remedy(ies), learned counsel for petitioner submits that petitioner may be permitted to withdraw this Writ Petition, with liberty to avail statutory remedy(ies) available to him in accordance with law under Recovery of Debts Due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 1993 and any other. However, it is submitted that period spent in pursuing this Writ Petition be excluded for purpose of limitation. 2 2.
