MUMBAI: Public sector banks had become judge and executioner at once in having look out circulars or LOCs<\/a> issued against defaulters, said Bombay high court while quashing the powers granted by Centre to such banks ostensibly in larger public interest.
The fundamental rights under Article 21 of personal liberty and the right to travel abroad cannot be abrogated in this fashion by an executive action, a high court division bench of Justice Gautam Patel and Justice Madhav Jamdar said in its reasoned judgment uploaded on Thursday.The judgment came on a large batch of petitions challenging the constitutional validity of LOCs issued by the ministry of home affairs at the instance of various public sector banks.
The power given to a public sector bank through its top brass also is manifestly arbitrary as it creates an invalid classification and thus violates the fundamental right to equality too, HC held.
The bank flouted two fundamental legal canons. One is that no person may be a judge in his own cause, the other is principles of natural justice \u2014 there was no prior hearing in the issuance of LOCs by them. \u201cThe fact that the public sector bank is directly concerned with the recovery of debt and is yet armed with this unilateral power only makes matters worse\u201d, thus paving for a resultant bias.<\/p>\n

The power given to a public sector bank through its brass also is manifestly arbitrary as it creates an invalid classification and thus violates the fundamental right to equality too, Bombay HC said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe LOCs boil down to nothing but a strong-arm tactic to bypass or leapfrog what PSBs see as inconveniences and irritants \u2014 the courts of law,\u201d it said. HC rejected the Centre\u2019s argument of bank-triggered LOCs and power being issued in limited restriction for exceptional cases and in the public interest.
\u201cNo one denies that economic offenders must be brought to book. But no amount of public interest can substitute for a procedure established by law \u2014 by a statute, statutory rule or statutory regulation \u2014 in the matter of deprivation of the right to life and personal liberty guaranteed under Article 21 of the Constitution of India,\u201d the court said.
HC struck down part of the office memorandum that empowered public sector bank CMDs and CEOs for being arbitrary, unreasonable, improper, and on grounds of excessive power. HC said the banks were silent on the next question. \u201cIs it to be assumed by a court that just because a borrower is travelling abroad, therefore he is bound to settle abroad and flee the country?\u201d it said.
HC said the 2018 Fugitive Economic Offenders Act, to deter economic offenders from evading Indian courts, has precisely the avowed objective of these public sector bank-driven LOCs and can be invoked by the banks. <\/div>\n
