.....the loan. the loan amount plus interest due would work out more than 2 lakhs and the amount due towards the prized chitty after deducting the instalments to be paid is mentioned rs.71978/-. evidently the complainant was not in a position to remit the loan amount as well as the chitty instalments at the same time. even the amount of compensation ordered to be paid would not enable the complainant to get out of the debt trap. we find that the opposite party/appellant should not have insisted for additional security and refused to adjust the prized chitty amount to the loan account as requested by the complainant. the interest at 21% was due on the loan amount where as the prized chitty amount was not disbursed nor was it credited with any interest. in the circumstances we find that there is clear deficiency in service on the part of the opposite party/appellant. no interference is called for in the order of the forum to pay compensation and cost. in the result the appeal is dismissed.
