JUDGEMENT
-
(1.) IT appears that attention of this Court when it decided the case of State Bank of Patiala v. Harbans Singh was not drawn to the second para of
circular dated 1-4-1981, referred to in para 5 of the judgment. The
learned counsel for the Banks state that the date of the circular is
wrongly mentioned therein as 18-4-1991, and the correct date of that
circular is 1-4-1981. In our opinion, the second para of that circular
has a substantial bearing on the question involved and therefore, the
decision requires reconsideration. We, therefore, direct the Registry to
place papers of this case before the Hon. Chief Justice of India for
appropriate orders. The learned counsel appearing for the Canara Bank and
the Reserve Bank request that the matter may be directed to be listed, as
early as possible as a large number of awards have been passed by the
Ombudsman and they are creating problems for the Reserve Bank and other
banks.;
