At the outset, we address the jurisdiction of this Court to entertain this petition under Article 199 of the Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan, 1973. The maintainability of a writ petition against the Respondent-Bank is supported by the Supreme Court's judgments in Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited, etc vs. Said Rehman & others (2013 SCMR 642) and Muhammad Rafiullah & others vs. Zarai Taraqiati Bank Limited & another (2018 SCMR 598). Based on these precedents, we conclude that this Petition falls within the Constitutional jurisdiction of this Court and can be heard and decided on its merits.
