For Mr. Singhvi to make political arguments that nothing was done without My Lords supervision is not correct, says SG
My arguments were sober. I don’t understand from where Mr. Mehta thinks there is political colour to them, Singhvi says
Lets not forget that it is the Union which said that the Banks have to do business. It is all before your lordships. Yes it has been done at your Lordships Behest, says Senior Advocate Rajiv Dutta
None of this would have happened if this issue was not before your Lordships, says Singhvi
I am objecting to this that it only happened because of My lords submissions, SG says
Dr. Singhvi may have some suggestions and he may approach the RBI, says SG
We are not passing any orders, says Justice Bhushan
Then let the RBI not be asked to come back and revert, says SG
SG Interjects....
Mr. Mehta one minute, Justice Shah says
Give these suggestions in writing to the Counsel for RBI, says Justice Bhushan
Formally issue notice on my petition and kindly ask them to respond to the notes sent to them, this will ensure a time bound response, Singhvi says
What these banks are now doing is taking other forms of steps which are coercive.
Your lordships should consider by slightly a sympathetic approach to report to your lordships with the suggestions I put forth, says Singhvi
Allow borrowers to opt in or opt out of scheme. RBI given a uniform circular, says Singhvi
