HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:36918 WP No. 27785 of 2025
THIS PETITION, COMING ON FOR PRELIMINARY HEARING, THIS DAY, ORDER WAS MADE THEREIN AS UNDER:
CORAM: HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE B M SHYAM PRASAD
ORAL ORDER
The petitioners have admittedly availed loan from the first and the second respondents and they are aggrieved by these respondents having taken recourse to the provisions of the Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 [for short, 'the SARFAESI Act']. The petitioners, while referring to earlier orders of this Court and certain concluded proceedings under the Consumer Protection Act, 2019, propose to contend that the respondents could not have initiated action as certain amounts have not been accounted for.

HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:36918 WP No. 27785 of 2025
Mr. Chethan. B., the learned counsel for the petitioners, argues to support the petition in the light of the afore contention, but this Court must observe that the petitioners must avail their remedy under Section 17 of the SARFAESI Act where all questions and facts can be examined, and there is no reason for interference in the present writ proceedings.
At this stage, Mr. Chethan B submits that the first and second respondents have called upon the petitioners to vacate their residential premises and if this Court could direct the first and second respondents not to take coercive measures for a reasonable time, the petitioners will be able to effectively avail the alternative remedy. Ms.Navya Shekhar, the learned Additional Government Advocate, who is called upon to accept notice for the third respondent, is heard in the light of the petitioners' grievance.

HC-KAR NC: 2025:KHC:36918 WP No. 27785 of 2025
ORDER [A] The petition stands disposed of relegating the petitioners to avail their alternative remedy under Section 17 of the SARFAESI Act calling upon the respondents to defer taking actual physical possession of the subject property until 21st October, 2025.
[B] It is needless to observe that this stipulation shall not preclude the respondents from availing other remedies as may be permissible in law.
