After service of Notice, the Bank having entered appearance through its Panel Counsel submits that since O.A. No.438 of 2025 is pending before the DRT, no other coercive action for recovery has been taken as yet and therefore, petition p. 2 is not maintainable. He also tells that it is open to the Petitioner to take up all contentions before the DRT as have been taken before this Court in the petition. With the above observations, petition is disposed off.
