Your argument should be that the since there is no legally recoverable debt hence the proceedings should be set aside. Firstly you have to show to the court that his chit business is illegal. Unregisterered chit funds are not recognised by law. You gave your security check in utter ignorance of his running the business in an unregistered manner. Even if the pass book entries are not being accepted even then his debt is not recoverable from you since he is running his business illegally and your due if any is not legally recoverable.
