History of Dharmashastra (Ancient and Mediaeval Religious and Civil Law in India) v4.c63.703

v4.c63.703

Kāt. (609) states a reasonable counter-exception to the rule in 606 viz. 'when the owner of an article borrowed by another is likely to sustain loss if the article borrowed were not returned on demand, then the borrower should be made to deliver it even though the time fixed has not ended or the purpose of the loan was only half fulfilled'.
