_______Defendants

 

Suit for Declaration and Permanent Injunction valued at Rs. 1,000/- (Rupees One Thousand) only.

 

The Plaintiff most respectfully submits as follows;

 

1.   The Plaintiff is married to one Sri Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose of Premises being no. 36C, Motilal Gupta Road, Post Office Barisha, Police Station Haridevpur, Kolkata – 700008, District South 24 Parganas, and out of their wedlock one daughter namely Brishti Bose born. The plaintiff is the Second Wife of the said Sri Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose. The said Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose married this plaintiff on demise of his first wife. The said Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose have one Son namely Vivek Bose and one daughter namely Binita Bose, out of his earlier wedlock with his first wife. Therefore the said Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose died on 10-06-2024, leaving behind his legal heirs, and successors, as the Plaintiff Nandita Mondal Bose (Widower), Brishti Bose (Minor Daughter) and Vivek Bose (Son from the first wife), Binita Bose (Daughter from the first wife). Therefore the Plaintiff on demise of her husband Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose on 10-06-2024, become successor for 50% (Fifty percent) of the property including money lying in the Bank Accounts as well as money in the form of the Fixed Deposit lying in the concerned Bank.

 

2.   The Plaintiff acquired knowledge that the deceased Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose had have substantial money in the Saving Bank Account No. 52220042185611, with the Bandhan Bank, Joka Branch, IFSC : BDBL0002144, having Branch at Ground Floor, B- 4, Dist, Diamond Park, Joka, Kolkata – 700104, West Bengal. Saving Bank Account no. 19730002183, & Fixed Deposits with ICICI Bank, Thakurpukur Branch,  IFSC Code: ICIC0001973, having Branch at Premises being no. 130C Diamond Harbour Road, Joka, Ps Thakurpukur, Kolkata - 700104, West Bengal. Saving Bank Account & Fixed Deposit with Karur Vysya Bank, Joka Branch, IFSC Code: KVBL0003108 having its Branch at Diamond Park, Joka, Kolkata - 700104, West Bengal.

 

3.   The Plaintiff approached the defendants bank; but they did not co-operate on account that the respective accounts in the name of deceased Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose has been assigned with Nominee, which stand in the name of Vivek Bose being Son of the first wife of the deceased Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose. The defendants’ bank did not adhere to give any money to the plaintiff.

 

4.   The Plaintiff is the Second lawful wife of the deceased Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose, who died on 10-06-2024. The Plaintiff is with her minor daughter Brishti Bose are the lawful Successors along with Vivek Bose (Son from the first wife), Binita Bose (Daughter from the first wife). But since the said Vivek Bose name has been given as Nominee in all the bank Accounts by the deceased Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose, he used to take money at his own from the concerned Bank Accounts towards to gain of himself and his sister Binita Bose. Thus, the plaintiff and her minor daughter has duly been victimized at the behest of the defendants.

 

5.   The Plaintiff submits that nomination made in Bank accounts or Fixed Deposits does not confer any ownership right upon the nominee. As per settled law, the nominee acts only as a trustee for the legal heirs of the deceased account holder. Therefore, the entire amount lying in the said Bank Accounts and Fixed Deposits of Late Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose ought to devolve equally among his legal heirs, namely — the Plaintiff (widow), Brishti Bose (minor daughter), Vivek Bose (son from the first marriage), and Binita Bose (daughter from the first marriage). However, the Defendant Nos. 1 and 2, in connivance with the Defendant Bank officials (Defendant Nos. 3, 4, and 5), have illegally withdrawn, or are attempting to withdraw, the entire sum, thereby depriving the Plaintiff and her minor daughter of their legitimate shares.

 

6.   The Plaintiff further submits that despite repeated requests and representations to the concerned Bank Branches, the said Banks have failed and neglected to protect the interests of all the legal heirs of the deceased Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose. The Banks have wrongfully allowed Defendant No.1, namely Vivek Bose, to deal with the accounts and Fixed Deposits without insisting upon a Succession Certificate, Probate, or Letter of Administration, which is mandatory under the law for disbursal of funds when there are multiple legal heirs.

 

7.   The Plaintiff also states that she is constrained to approach this Hon’ble Court for necessary reliefs by way of Declaration and Permanent Injunction to protect her and her minor daughter’s share in the estate left behind by Late Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose.

 

  1. The cause of action for the present suit arose on the death of Sri Bimal Kumar Bose @ Bimal Bose on 10-06-2024, and subsequently when the Plaintiff was denied her lawful claim over the bank accounts and Fixed Deposits. The cause of action is continuing as the Plaintiff and her minor daughter are being wrongfully deprived of their rightful share.

 

  1. This Hon’ble Court has the jurisdiction to entertain and try the present suit as the properties in question, namely the Saving Bank Accounts and Fixed Deposits, are situated within the jurisdiction of this Hon’ble Court, and the Defendant Nos. 1 and 2 also reside within the territorial jurisdiction of this Hon’ble Court. Furthermore, the cause of action wholly or in part has arisen within the jurisdiction of this Hon’ble Court.

The Plaintiff undertakes to pay any additional Court fees if so directed by this Hon’ble Court.
