Not only the respondent No.3 shall maintain the true accounts, but shall also provide complete access to the appellant herein. Since the partnership is still subsisting and the appellant is one of the partners, he cannot be deprived of his right to participate in the partnership business and have the information with regard to the accounts maintained by respondent No.3.
