As per the norms of banks you are aboslutely bound to pay off the debts,but at the same time the bank cannot threten you of taking possession of your property against other loans,which are unsecured loans.You may approach the management of the concerned bank and if it didn't work out then you may file a petition in the Ombudsman office for redressal.
you may consult a lawyer of your area and he would suggest you the way out. you can only delay the repayment but ultimately you have to pay.
