Blank cheques are not legally enforceable. So you can file appropriate Criminal Revision Petition to quash the complaints for cheque dishonour.

as you a dealer, you must be having an association. you may put this issue forward and ask the association to intervene. in case nothing works out, serve a legal notice upon the company to return the cheques and if they do not do so, initiate a legal action.
