No I don, t think that banks should take such a cheap measure to extract their money out. Banks first of all should carefully go through the purpose for which the customer is taking loan and if feels satisfied than only loan should be granted and moreover after granting loan if bank feels that instalments are not properly or timely coming than bank should start taking actions like timely notice or reminder to the customer, timely visit at the customer, s and gradually warning him for legal action rather than directly sending the force because it ultimately affects the reputation of the bank and hence nation's.

Yes, I agree with this statement, because if banks has a right to give loans then they have a right to recover in the best possible manner in which they can. If the person is not able to repay the loan, then he has no right to take a loan. Banks are here to lend money to help people for a particular problem, why people not understand that they are not doing a charity.

Hi Friends, according to my view bank have no right to send goons to the customer's door. Bank first check the credit of the person who is coming for loan. Only on the bases of person annual income and its others property, bank should give the loan. On the same time bank should tell all its condition regarding the loan to the costumer. Before last date bank should call the costumer and recall him about his/her loan and said to him to pay loan at the time. If any one is fail than banks should first give a legal notice to the costumer after that bank should make a case against him in court. FORCE is not the solution of such these condition.

Though there are many options, using force is more viable that too for cheaters who has gone abscond. Proper customer evaluation mechanism should be in use to prevent this case at the beginning stage. Risk profiles should be created and should be cautious with customers placed under high risk category. Wat if the person with high credibility becomes bankrupt? there's no other way than to own the security pledged by the defaulter. But if it's an unsecured loan which is given on the will of the manager judging the customer's credit worthiness? The only way is to recall by force but it may have negative impacts which may make the customer to take hasty decision like ending his life. So it's up to the management to make the advance after looking at various security concerns.

Banking is also a business and no one wants to loose their money so definitely bank also never want that.Before granting loan to customer they should study its background .rather than doing it banks are advertising that they can give loans in just 5 minutes,this is where the problem starts customer feels it good and takes it without thinking how to return it.Force is not best way for recovery .They can recover it by legal ways like auction of property etc.

I think bank should not use recovery agent, which can be avoided by carefully examine the history or the capacity of the repayment og the customer. If he seems to be unable to re pay bank should not grant any loan if granted also bank must try to recover by way of legal means and if not possible by any legal action then as a very last option he can try to recover his loan by force, but this can be avoided if bank creats a seperate cell which will examin the payment capacity of the customer before grantion the loan.

The solution is very simple ...banks must do their homework nicely before giving loans. Forcing customers to repay the loans show that bank failed to judge the customer at the time of granting the loan. and if the customer is not repaying even if he is capable then the bank should take legal action or may get the money back forcefully.

It is in the financial institutions' hands, whether to give loan or not to a particular persons. If it undergoes a wide analysis of the persons ability to repay the loan within a particular time then the banks can give loan with confidence. My point is to the banker's side that they should perform a feasibility study before offering loan to a particular person.

As far as my views on force to be used to recover the loan from the borrower is not justified as at the time so payment of loan bank should follows the rules in vogue and fulfills the term and conditions of loan and it should also be ensured that the person who taking loans is capable to return the same within the stipulated period. At the last since the loan is the govt money property of the person who is unable to return the loan be auctioned and amount recovered be liquidated the loan.

I think there is no matter of using force because one who is taking loan is committed to return the same but due to some unavoidable circumstances some time he may not be able to return the same within the stipulated time, but as and when he is capable to return he returns, in case he cannot return then the guaranteeing person can be asked to deposit the same.
