RBI GUIDELINES

The Madhava Das Committee had proposed that there is a necessity to cease the practice of primary or initial credit societies beginning banking business without initial acquiring a license from the RBI. According to the amendment in the Act, these societies will have to obey the criterion stipulated by the RBI within 1 year of it being announced. The Banking Regulation Act, 1949 (AACS), Section 5 (CCII) of a cooperative credit society is explained as a cooperative society, “the principal object of which is to furnished financial abodes to its members and covers a cooperative land mortgage bank.” These types of establishments are thrift societies. The difference between a primary or initial credit society and a cooperative credit society is a source of their essence of business.

The initial aim or principal business of a primary credit society is the trade of banking business. When its contributed capital and reserves achieve the level of Rs.1 lakh, a primary credit society inevitably becomes a primary cooperative bank. However, even after a primary credit society set off a cooperative bank, it has to register with RBI for a license to bring on banking business. But it can bring on banking business until it is authorized a license or notified that a license cannot be authorized to it.

THE BIGGEST BANK SCAMS IN INDIA

• Nirav Modi Bank Scam

Nirav Modi v State of Maharashtra on 18 October 2019;

Commissioner of Income Tax v Nirav Modi on 14 December 2016

Bench – S.S. Shinde

This scam is known as a substantial scam (Rs 11,400 crore) in the banking zone of India. The prime accused of the crime are billionaire jeweler Neerav Modi and Mehul Surakshi (his uncle and the owner of Gitanjali James). Both of them had been presented with the “Letter of Undertaking” from the agreement of the employees of PNB’s Mumbai branch and withdrawn the funds from the foreign banks on the assurance of Punjab National Bank.

Mallya’s Kingfisher Airlines had loaned ₹ 9,432 crores from 13 banks before February 2018. The State Bank of India was the biggest moneylender with ₹1600 crore accompanied by the PNB ₹800 crores, IDBI ₹650 crores, and the Bank of Baroda loaned ₹ 550 crores.

CONCLUSION

Cooperative banks play a vital role in the execution of evolution programs and are important for the productive functioning of the banking system in India. India is labeled as an underbanked country, and after so many scandals and scams, it is the need of the hour to take essential measures to remedy the deficiency and to raise the confidence and beliefs of the public in the banking system.

-Report by Nistha Tiwari

In the case of Aman Kumar Bharadwaj v. state of Himachal Pradesh and Ors. the High Court of Himachal Pradesh quashed the criminal case filed against a journalist who was checking the system of generating e-pass during COVID-19.

The Zee Media House Journalist Abhishek Kumar Bharadwaj was booked under sections 419 (cheating by personation), 468(forgery for purpose of cheating ), and 471 (using as genuine a forged document or electronic record ) of the Indian Penal Code. He was also booed under section 66(D) of the information and technology Act, 2000 and section 54 of the Disaster Management Act, 2005.

The state of Himachal Pradesh, on 25th April 2021, issued certain directions regarding the inter-state movement to Himanchal Pradesh. This was to be monitored through the process of registration of an e-pass on the e-pass web portal. On having doubts about the increased movement in the state even after strict restrictions, the petitioner being a responsible journalist decided to investigate and check the system of generating e-passes. The petitioner filled out two online registration forms for the issuance of two e-passes for entering the state of Himachal Pradesh without mentioning any valid reason. These two e – passes were registered in the names of two renowned personalities
i.e., Amitabh Bachchan and Donald Trump. He uploaded random vehicle details and his own Aadhar card details while doing so. Even after filling incorrect details, the passes were issued to him which assured him that the details are not being verified and the authorities are issuing passes in a mechanical manner.

The investigation was carried out by him with the permission of the Bureau Chief. Upon completion of the investigation, the journalist brought it to the notice of the senior authorities of the state including a cabinet minister and Director General of Police of Himachal Pradesh. However, he received no response and telecasted it on the news channel.

An FIR was registered against Aman Bharadwaj by the state as he used fake registration numbers of vehicles by mentioning his own mobile number and Aadhar card number as Identity proof for generating fake and forged documents. It was also alleged he caused the spread of false propaganda about the state allowing the entry of anyone and everyone in the state, as the state had put barriers and was checking the entry of each car.

The court observed the ingredients of the offenses under which the FIR was filed and came to the conclusion that the acts of Aman Bhardwaj do not fall within the definition of the alleged offenses.

“…Petitioner was having doubt about proper working of verification system of State at the time of registration of online request for e-pass and generation of e-passes. He was not having any other via-media to check and verify the system except submitting a misleading request. It is evident that in entire episode intention of petitioner was neither dishonest nor fraudulent as immediately after generation of epasses, which otherwise could not have been used by any person,
petitioner brought it to the notice of concerned authorities and persons…”

Aman Bharadwaj was neither fraudulent nor dishonest as after the issuance of e-passes based on the fake documents, he brought it to the concerned authorities. He never intended to use those passes for entering Himachal Pradesh. There is no sufficient material for registration of the offenses and a prima facie case cannot be made against the petitioner. In light of the above, the petition was allowed and the FIR was quashed.

-Report by Avinash Pandey

The Karnataka High Court observed in Sri Shivaswamy vs The State Of Karnataka the importance of possession of the property to allege trespass. In this case, the respondent had filed a complaint against the petitioner alleging that he had trespassed into her property, threatened the tenants to vacate, and also caused some loss by disconnecting electricity. Furthermore, the petitioner had trespassed on multiple properties in that area. On the above-stated contentions, the complainant was filed under sections 143, 149, 427, 447, 448, and 506 of the Indian Penal Code.

The petitioners had filed this petition to quash the proceedings of the complaint. The counsel from the side of the petitioners contested that, the case is not criminal in nature but is inclined more towards civil originality. It was further stated that the petitioners are trying to arm-twist the case as they had lost all the papers and prior litigations for the property in contention. Furthermore, the complaint was registered after a delay of 7 months. The delay in the filing shows that the complaint was filed with mala fide intention. The respondents on the other hand refuted the contentions and claimed that they had possession of the property.

The Single judge bench comprising Justice M Nagaprasanna made the initial observation that the land, in this case, was purchased duly by the Bangalore Development Authority to make the rightful use for the NTI Housing Co-operative Society. The petitioner purchased the property from the society with a registered sale deed and all the petitioners have purchased their portions via a registered sale deed. After some time had purchased the property with all the paperwork and the revenue records replaced with their names. The complainants had challenged the acquisition in a different case before the Karnataka High court wherein it was held that the petitioners hold the possession of the property and the claim of the complainants have no merit.

The court made the observation that for a case to be made under section 447 the possession should be there. Section 447 read with section 441 of the IPC is an “interplay between a civil right and a crime”. The respondents had also contended that the petition has been filed 3 years after the complaint and hence should be rejected on account of the delay, to which the court replied that it has power under section 482 of the CrPC to allow a petition despite a delay for prevention of miscarriage of justice. The case relied upon by the respondents were also held to be irrelevant.

In the current case, it was seen that the documents provided by the petitioner party were enough for the court to acknowledge their stand and to overpower the documents presented by the respondents. It was observed:

“…The case at hand is for offence under Section 447 of the IPC, for which the most relevant factor would be exclusive possession of the property, on which the accused is alleged to have trespassed. If exclusive possession is not with the complainant, the complaint of criminal trespass into the property and damage to that property under Section 427 of the IPC can hardly be alleged, as observed hereinabove.”

In the judgment the court allowed the Petition to prevent the miscarriage of justice and quashed the criminal complaint against them.
