Lucknow: A high-voltage drama unfolded in Uttar Pradesh's capital Lucknow on Wednesday evening when a team comprising bank and revenue officials and woman constables went to a shop for the recovery of loans from a defaulter. The team of officials had gone there to execute a court order in connection with the recovery of loans.
