3. Very unfortunately, Mrs.Jayanthi Ramesh, R.Pooja and R.Mahalakshmi alias R. Madhumita are actually defendants in a suit instituted by the plaintiff, but very fortunately, they had entered into a compromise and hopefully this would put an end to all the differences within the family in future also.

document No.10559 of 2016 respectively and which were the bone of contention in the suit shall be cancelled. But, in lieu of such cancellation, today, in this Court, the plaintiff handed over a sum of i) Rs.50.00,000/- by way of Demand Draft No.154688, dated 17.01.2018 drawn on The Karur Vysya Bank Limited, T.Nagar Branch to his daughter/ first defendant, Mrs.Jayanthi Ramesh;

It is to be noted that this Demand Draft has been purchased, in the name of the Registrar General, High Court, Madras, since the 3rd defendant R.Mahalakshmi alias Madumita, who is a minor. b) Registry is directed to deposit the said Demand Draft in a Nationalised Bank, so that interest can accure to that and the sum can be withdrawn at the time of attainment of majority of the 3rd defendant R.Mahalakshmi alias R.Madhumita, on proper identification and acknowledgment. Separate application to withdraw the amount need not be presented and by an administrative order, the amount can be paid to the minor
