The case involves a petition filed by Dipanjan Bhattacharjee to quash a criminal proceeding against him related to a dishonored cheque. The complaint case, CN 673 of 2021, was filed under sections 138/141 of the Negotiable Instruments Act, 1881.

Bhattacharjee contends that he was not responsible for the day-to-day business affairs of the LLP and that the loan was obtained and the cheque was issued by another partner, Manish Kakrania, without his knowledge or consent.
