u can also add misbehaviour on the part of bank officials whenever the defendant visited the bank to know about the details of his account.

another aspect could be that the defendant intended to settle the matter at the very first instance but the bank did not cooperate.

or u may add points like lack of jurisdiction, misjoinder of parties.

all such counters are to be used keeping in view the facts of the case, merely copying them may create contradictory positions...riven

In one case the borrower denied existence of the bank itself in INdia, while it was a case of a nationalised bank and I was branch manager !!!
