I gave a blank cheque to a private college for a B.A.M.S degree course, with instructions to fill it after 10 days. They immediately used it and the cheque bounced. The college now insists I pay the fees via RTGS/NEFT within 10 days. They admit they wrongly presented the cheque to the bank. I initially transferred Rs. 50,000 to see if the funds would be credited, but the college now claims the seat has been sold to someone else for a higher donation and refuses to admit me. What legal recourse do I have?

You have legal recourse against the college for dishonoring the cheque due to their wrongful presentation. You can file a complaint with the consumer forum or take legal action for breach of contract and wrongful enrichment. You can also claim compensation for the mental harassment and financial losses caused by the college’s actions.
