The petitioner availed an educational loan from the respondent Bank. On account of non repayment of the loan, the Bank initiated revenue recovery proceedings. The petitioner impugns the same in this writ petition.

3. The learned Standing Counsel for the Bank submits that the total liability of the petitioner is around 2,50,000/- along with ₹ incidental expenses and future interest.

2. If the petitioner fails to pay any of the installments, the Bank is at liberty to proceed against the petitioner.
