In case the documents in the power and possession of the opposite party are relent to the issue/controversy in a case you may move an application under Order 11 Rule 12 and 14 of the CPC praying the court to order the opposite party to produce the document. The Bank may not give you copy of bank statement as it keeps the information in respect to account of a customer in trust and therefore not divulge the information yo you.

One cant get the Bank Statement of any other person by any legal means. One can try some illegal means in order to get the Bank statement of the opposite party. The Hon'ble Supreme Court has held in a recent case that any illegal act for the good cause or to prove something right doesn't construe an illegal act.

Finally, by no means one can get the personal information of any other person, until and unless Court directs it.
