How Political Parties will Bring Education loan waiver in Tamilnadu

A friend of mine has got an education loan from State Bank of India. Now the bank has sold that loan to M/s Reliance Asset Reconstruction Company through assignment agreement.  



On sale of education loan, the private company has become the legal lender and retains all the rights of the loan. So my friend needs to pay his EMI/Full loan repayment to the private company. He tried contacting the Assets Reconstruction Company through phone to discuss about repaying the education loan. However there is no response from their end. This delay in responding to queries will further increase the burden in repaying the loan. Now, in this case how the parties will react. See their smart move, banks are more smarter than the political conditions of Tamil Nadu. They did this before a month itself. Some people may repaid their loan fully or partially, so if the education loan is cancelled then there is an another doubt that whether they will get any benefits.

I believe that, there may be more problems in bringing education loan waiver in Tamil Nadu.
