The petitioner's grievance is about the offer of settlement of loan account. A true copy of the offer of settlement of loan A/c No.FEDBNGLAP0480061 is furnished along with the writ petition at Annexure A. It appears from the said document that Fedbank had offered settlement. 4. Counsel for the respondent Sri.K.V.Lokesh submits that the offer of settlement of loan was not honored by the petitioner. Submission is placed on record. - 4 - HC-KAR NC: 2026:KHC:28240 WP No. 9351 of 2025 5. If the petitioner is dissatisfied with the settlement offer, he is at liberty to disregard it. There is no requirement to seek quashing of the settlement offer, nor is there any necessity to approach this Court for such relief. A prayer of this nature cannot be granted in the exercise of writ jurisdiction. Accordingly, I decline to exercise writ jurisdiction in the matter. Consequently, the writ petition stands dismissed. Because of dismissal the Writ Petition, interim order granted if any stands discharged and pending interlocutory applications if any are disposed of. Sd/- (JYOTI M) JUDGE SS List No.: 1 Sl No.: 23
