cheque of Rs. 50,000 under Section 138 Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881 on

In this the complainant begs to file the complaint as under
That accused took a hand loan of Rs50000 from the complainant for his family necessity/business necessity with a condition that whenever complainant demands it will be repaid
But accused went on postponing it one or the other reasons. Complainant again demanded to repay the taken hand loan then accused issued a cheque No of bank dt. for Rs50,000 and instructed the complainant present the cheque for encashment
Keeping faith on the accused complainant presented the cheque for encashment thru, his banker which came to be dishonoured for want of sufficient funds in the accused bank account
Immediately complainant informed the fate of the cheque but accused kept quiet. as such complainant got issued a legal notice to the accused to repay the taken hand loan within 15 days from the date of receipt of the notice. but accused inspite of receiving the notice kept quiet. as such complainant constrained to file this complaint.
Knowing full well that his account holds no sufficient funds, he issued a cheque to clear his legally payable debt to the complainant
By issuing a bogus cheque accused has commiited an offence u/s 138 of NI act
Hence complainanant most humbly prays
That cognizance of the case may kindly be taken by registereing the case and accused may kindly punished in accordance with law. This is gist of the format u/s 138 of NI ACt u can add some more facts.
