Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner submitted a representation dated 30.06.2026 to the second respondent seeking necessary action for removal of the said unknown loan transaction from his CIBIL report. However, no action has been taken on the said representation. Hence, the present Writ Petition has been filed. 5.
