Dear Anonymous,
Please tell whether it is a real problem, or your imaginary problem?

Subramanian Sir & Ramchandran Sir

It is not imaginary but a fact

Bank had executed a loan agreement and in addition had also obtained blank cheques and a promissory note as part of the loan agreement I never felt the necessity for the loan and hence never took it, but now I find that the same has been brought to the court as evidence which does not pertain to the particular loan but involves me and my firm.

Mr. Anonymous,
What you are saying here is that though you issued blank cheques and a promissory note, they were issued in connection with a particular loan, which you never took, but the bank is using the said documents in connection with some other dues that you or your firm owe to the bank.
Am I correct in my understanding? First please confirm, before I proceed further.

Yes Ramchandran Sir

You have to fight your case with several documentary proof to say that the cheques in question were not given in part or full payment of any enforceable debt.
