The petitioners were summoned under Section 138 of the Act only. Order dated 04.12.2013 vide which petitioner No. 2 Kuldeep Nandrajog as well as Sanjeev Gupta were declared proclaimed offender has also been challenged on the ground that service thereof was never effected as per the provisions of law. The matter has been settled amicably between the parties and the entire amount due stands paid. Learned counsel for respondent No. 1 submits that accused Sanjeev Gupta has been arrayed as a party due to inadvertent mistake.
