Mr. Shivkumar, you have got a fit case of negligence. You send notice to the Bank recovery agency and the Bank for not handing over physical possession and keeping the premises locked without authority even after the payment of the dues and issuing of clearance certificate by the bank. You also claim damages for the negligence, mental agony and unnecessary delay and hardship caused to you.  

Thanks for your comments/veiws on my query.Kindly inform whether I can Break the Lock/Seal in the presence of witnesses and is there any panchnama required for repossession.

You don't entangle yourself by breaking the lock. First give notice through an advocate stating that you require possession and asking them to break open the lock and hand over possession, give them sufficient time to do so, otherwise inform in the notice itself that on the expiry of the specified period of time you will break open the lock with witnesses and gain entry into the property. 

Respected Sir as per your advice I have (Myself) sent a Final Reminder/Request stating that I require possession and asking the bank to hand over the keys of the locks that are fixed at the property and to also hand over possession of the property.But till date the bank has not done the same.I have also contacted the Higher authorities of the Bank and have not received any positive response and the notice period is going to expire on 27-09-2010.

After the expiry of the specified period of time can I break open the lock in the presence of 2 witnesses and gain entry into the property.Is there any legal complication for the same.Can you suggest me a good advocate at nagpur who can deal this case (reasonably). 

Dear Shivakumar,

Certain extraordinary situations would require extraordinary remedies.  Please write to the Vigilance Officer of the Bank Concerned complaining that the Branch Manager (name him) is demanding money to remove the seal. Give a copy to the Branch Manager also.

Just see the dramatic result.

For GOD's sake never ever break open the seal yourself, with or without witnesses.  As rightly pointed out by Mr. Ranganathan, you will land in a very very deep problem.

As per the advice you have not given the notice through an advocate. If you send it through an advocate it will have its own value. Otherwise you can do anything you like. It is now upto you to whatever you feel. I can only give legal advice.

@ Dear Shiv Kumar,

Please send a registered notice to the Bank. if they dont respond immediately u file a complaint with Ombudsman, they will even accomodidate u compensation and bank officers will be suspended if it is proved that they have delayed in handing over ur property.

Dear Asghar,

One Bank will transfer loan account directly to another. If they do so also it will be harmful to u

So better u take loan from nationalised bank while clearing the ICICI Bank.

ICICI Bank is the worst Bank, it attract people with easy approach, but makes sleepless and move piller to post to make ur works done.

@ ragnath,

For Banking matters, Advocates are not much required, it is better if they approach directly.

Because, RBI legal enforcement body is Ombudsman, they take very stringent action if the Bankers dont work proeprtly, but most of them dont know what is Ombudsman and they go to wrong fora.

Mr. Narasimha Rao, Banking Ombudsman is a separate fora for the Banking sector but their powers are limited and their orders cannot be enforced like that of courts. They can just pass orders but cannot be enforced. It is a quasi judicial body but don't have powers of enforcement.
