Citizens very often complain about our legal system and as to how the Courts are functioning in this country. People having experience with Courts will explain in detail as to how our system functions. Unless one is a habitual litigant misusing the Court process knowing the ‘loop-wholes’, citizens are afraid to approach Courts in this country and they compromise their rights and entitlements at times rather going Courts. Every one knows the issues of pendency in Courts, often alleged corruption, deficiency in service at times and problems with the technicalities.

A good legal system represents good governance in the Country. We may say that India is a vibrant democracy and we may further proudly say that Indian society reflects ‘Unity in Diversity’. There are critics of democracy and they show caste politics, purchasing votes in elections, leaders looting billions of public money and criminals getting elected in the elections. Whatever may be the achievements of India and the criticism, the fact remains that India is a complex nation and issues are so complex.
Central Government hereby makes the following amendments in the notification number S.O. 891(E), dated the 31st March, 2009, namely:- 2. In the said notification,- (a) after serial number 5 and the entries relating thereto, the following serial number and entries shall be inserted, namely: 5A. Section 51

Partnership: Partnership (regulated by Partnership Act, 1932) is one of the preferred business vehicles by entrepreneurs in India. In-fact, India is one of a country which recognizes partnership as a taxable entity (assessee) under the Income Tax Act, 1961. Less stringent regulations, low compliance cost, ease, speed and flexibility of the structure are few of the attractions of the Partnership. Unlimited liability of partners, absence of incorporation status and perpetual succession are three significant drawbacks of the Partnership Structure.
After the constitution of Debt Recovery Tribunals (DRT) and Debt Recovery Appellate Tribunals (DRAT) under The Recovery of Debts due to Banks and Financial Institutions Act, 1993 and after conferring the authority to entertain appeals from the aggrieved persons under section 17 of SARFAESI Act, 2002, Banks have gained an upper-hand in the course of recovery of their dues. It is hard to see a Bank now going to Civil Court or facing a Civil Proceeding in-respect of recovery of their dues.
Under the provisions of ‘Securitisation and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of Security Interest Act, 2002 (‘SARFAESI Act’ in short), the Bank can invoke the process of recovery of money on its own without any adjudicatory process. The Banks can proceed with the enforcement of ‘security’ under the provisions of SARFAESI Act, 2002. If any borrower or any person is aggrieved with the action initiated by the Bank under the provisions of SARFAESI Act, 2002, then, he can approach the Debt Recovery Tribunal (DRT) under section 17 of the Act by paying the prescribed fee.
