Delhi HC dismisses challenge to restrictions on withdrawal from PMC Bank

The Delhi High Court has dismissed a petition by depositors of the PMC Bank challenging the restrictions imposed by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) on withdrawals from their bank accounts. Justice Prateek Jalan said despite sympathising with the petitioners, he was unable to grant relief to them. Despite sympathising with the position in which the petitioners find themselves, I am unable to grant the relief sought in this petition. The petition, along with the pending application, is therefore dismissed, but without any orders as to costs, the court said in its order dated November 30.

Earlier, similar directions were issued after the board of the largest cooperative bank was superseded by the RBI and the subsequent circulars on these matters issued on April 20, 2020 and on January 25, 2022.
