Indian Bank vs Catholic Syrian Bank Ltd. on 1 March, 1980

Before us, learned counsel for the plaintiff-appellant, Mr. V. S. Subrahmanyan, pointed out that before the trial court, both the drafts, exhibits A-3 and A-4, were placed under ultra violet lamp in open court and that both counsel saw the entries on the draft and agreed that they were originally issued as stated in the plaint. So, the parties are agreed that both the drafts were forged ones and hence void altogether. So, as in the court below, here also, the submission by the appellant is that since the defendant-bank was negligent in opening current account in the name of the above-said Krishnamurthi without proper introduction, it should make good the loss caused to the plaintiff and that, therefore, it cannot get protection under section 131 read with section 131A of the Negotiable Instruments Act (hereinafter referred to as "the Act"). Learned counsel for the appellant further submitted that the court below erred in not following the decision in Indian Bank v. Catholic Syrian Bank Ltd., cited before it, on the ground that the facts in the abovesaid decision were distinguishable from the facts in the present case.
