It was the duty of the authorised officer to deliver the possession of the property when the sale became complete. It was also the duty of the Bank to make application before DM for taking physical possession of the property before putting the same auction for sale. However, it appears from your question that DRT has asked the DM to take steps for taking possession. If the DM is not paying any heed to the same you can file a writ petition before High Court making DM, Bank, Authorised Officer party.
