Re: [HumJanenge] RTI to Bank

Only a good advocate can help you here.  Check with a good advocate. I don't know the facts involved in your case, but judiciary knows that dowry harassment law is being misued by girls a lot these days.

Thanks for your response Abhinav. This loan was taken by my FIL after our marriage. So he couldn't have told bank that "I need loan for my daughter's marriage". He has taken this loan post marriage and alleged in the litigation that it was to satisfy our dowry demand.

I think bank wouldn't give loan without knowing the reason the applicant needs loan for (other than a personal loan which has very high interest rate and that I am very sure he wouldn't have taken)

Bank may not fund for dowry directly.

Lets say the girl's father needed money for his daughter's marriage, he might think of getting loan from the bank by putting his home papers as collateral (without stating that he needs for dowry).

Thanks

Here is more background on this:

My wife has filed Dowry harrassment charges. She alleges that her father got a loan from ICICI Bank, putting his home as collateral for dowry. I am seeking information from ICICI Bank in this regard to support my case and get justice. The police isn't taking the pain to enquire the same. If I can somehow get this information before the case goes to court, the police would be duty bound to not file a blind chargesheet based on allegations, rather do further investigations properly and give us a clean chit.

The question is who HOLDS the info Mr Victor seeks. If it is ICICI Bank only, then chances are bleak using RTI. If it concerns his own grievance, he can use the RBI's mandated grievance (3 layer) redressal scheme which terminates in the Ombudsman, Sarbajit On Sat, Jan 1, 2011 at 7:01 PM, Anand acf <acfanand@gmail.com> wrote: ICICI Bank is a private bank.
