Wud be truly thankful if you could answer my that will it be treated as a case against me...

Already they have filed a case against you. But the same will be very weak if you prove that you have not inherited any property from your parents

Yes, it can be said to be a case against you, because the sons have to discharge the legal and pious obligations of their father. Even if you have not inherited any property from your father, even then, you could be made liable for repayment of the loan taken by your father, because the loan taken by your father, was for the benefits of the family members and for legal purposes. In case, you plead that the loan taken by your father was for some immoral purposes and was not meant for benefit of the family, then only you can escape the liability from repayment. As per law, legal heirs have to discharge the pious legal liabilities of the parents and the bank is right in impleading you as a party to the proceedings, in which your father was a defendant.
