ARTICLE-V: Shri H S Bhattacharjee did not ensure tallying of balances of different heads as per periodicity prescribed by the Bank. ODD and other impersonal heads were not tallied /reconciled but the fact was not reported to the Authorities.

ARTICLE-VI: During the tenure of Shri Bhattacharjee as Incumbent of BO Lekhapani, there was complete breakdown of System and procedure of the Bank. Record keeping was at a mess.

While disbursing of Central Civil Pension in the month of Oct 2009, excess credit of Rs.30,000.00 each was made to account no. 04-79397 & 01-71787 of Shri B Gurung and Shri S K Sengupta respectively. The excess amount of Rs. 30000.00 each got reversed on the same day & credited to the A/c no 01-65333 of one Sri Dharam Nath Prasad. The amount totaling Rs.60000.00 was withdrawn in cash by Credit Cash Voucher purportedly signed by Sri Dharam Nath Prasad. During investigation Shri Prasad expressed his ignorance about the said transactions in his account and also denied having received any such payment. He however recollected that such vouchers ( Credit Cash voucher affixing Revenue Stamp) were signed by him a few years back at the time of taking a demand loan against Bank Deposit. It shows that signature on additional vouchers taken in one pretext or the other has subsequently been used for fraudulent activities. The entries were created and authorized by Shri Bhattacharjee.

Charge Sheet-VI-2 During his tenure as Incumbent of BO Lekhapani, Shri Bhattacharjee adopted various irregular tactics with intention to conceal misdeeds. As per HRMS system and as claimed by him in the reply to the remarks call, Shri Bhattacharjee was on privilege leave from 22.09.2009 to 30.09.2009 but it has been found that Shri Bhattacharjee has checked and signed in the Daily Cash Balance Book of the branch on 22.09.2009, 25.09.2009, 26.09.2009 & 29.09.2009. - On 25.04.2009, 26.06.2009, 27.06.2009, 29.06.2009, 30.06.2009, 13.08.2009, 17.08.2009 to 21.08.2009, 26.08.2009, 27.08.2009, 31.12.2009, 29.01.2010, 25.02.2010 to 26.02.2010 Shri Bhattacharjee has not signed Attendance Register but he has put his signature in Daily Cash Balance Book on those days. - On several dates, Shri Bhattacharjee has neither signed nor marked anything in the attendance register. From the above, it is evident that Shri Bhattacharjee was physically present in the branch but avoided signing in Attendance Register to project as if he was not present in the branch. It shows the malicious intention of Shri Bhattacharjee to divert the attention of the Authority and seal various misdeeds committed by him. Charge-VII During the Incumbency of H S Bhattacharjee at BO: Lekhapani he acted negligently in remitting customers fund. He remitted a superfluous and an exorbitantly higher amount than the amount actually deposited by the customer. Thus he put the Bank to risk of loss of huge amount.
Shri Krishna Prasad Sharma deposited Rs. 12000.00 on 03.05.2010 for remitting to Everest Bank Limited for credit of account no.02500501202640 of GUMA KHAREL. However at the time of remitting the amount the following irregularities/ lapses have been committed by Shri Bhattacharjee. There is no cash receipt entry of Rs. 12000.00 (Rupees Twelve Thousand) in the Cash Book of 03/05/2010, which was reportedly deposited by Krishna Prasad Sharma for remitting to account no.02500501202640 of GUMA KHAREL maintained with Everest Bank Limited, Narayan Garh, Citban (Nepal). But, there is a Cash Receipt entry of Rs.2,50,050,12,02,640.00 in the Cash Book against which no physical cash was received by the branch. Through this transaction, Rs.2,50,050,12,02,640.00 was credited to account no 2254002100011923 of Everest Bank Limited maintained with IBB Delhi for further remittance to a/c no.02500501202640 of GUMA KHAREL maintained with Everest Bank Limited, Narayan Garh, Citban ( Nepal). Due to the above High Value Fictitious entry of Rs.2,50,050,12,02,640.00 and non recording of the actual receipt of Rs12000.00, the closing Cash Balance of the branch has differed and physical cash was lesser by Rs.2500501190640.00 . Daily Cash Balance Book on that particular date ie.03/05/2010 was not written and page no. 371 of the said book was found blank.

Moreover the following important Registers are also not maintained by the branch; 1. Cashiers Long Book to record all Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. 2. Cash Reserve Register to maintain the movement of cash from and to the Vault. Non-writing of the Cash Balance Book on 03/05/2010 indicates that Shri Bhattacharjee knew /detected the wrong entry on 03/05/2010 itself; but did not reverse the entry nor informed to the Authorities for reason best known to him. On 04/05/2010 he reversed the wrong entry of Rs.2,50,050,12,02,640.00 through transaction ID no. M172196 showing it as cash payment. No voucher has been prepared nor any narration/ record kept with voucher.
Closing cash balance as per cash Book and Daily Cash Balance Book on 04/05/2010 was Rs.660056.43 but it appears that Physical Cash did not tally with the books because the amount of Rs.12000.00 deposited on 03/05/2010 for remittance to EBL was not entered in the Cash Book. The said entry of Rs. 12000.00 was accounted for on 05/05/2010 under Transaction ID no M24976. Entries were created/ authorized by Shri Chintey/ Bhattacharjee. The branch has been violating Banks guidelines and there is non-adherence to Systems and procedures of the Bank during the Incumbency of Shri Bhattacharjee. He was managing the affairs of the branch in most casual and negligent manner during the period of stay at the branch as Incumbent In-charge.
