Respected
sir,
Subject:
Requesting Fake
note detector cum currency counting machines to all LSG/HSG-II/HSG-I and
identified Postmaster Grade offices.
Reference: SB order
number 12/2016 dated 08.11.2016
Vide above reference, post offices are directed to accept the withdrawn
old 500/1000 notes to curb out the black money and fake currencies.
Every
day in average Rs.35lakhs/50 lakhs/75 lakhs currencies are being received at
LSG/HSG-II/HSG-I offices respectively. While accepting those currencies there
is no fake note detector machine in almost all the offices, resulting officials
are suffering like anything. Many of the
post offices are reported by the Head post offices and banks as fake note
received offices only after received the remittances by the head offices and
banks. As a result unable to recover the amount from the public after working
hours and officials are bonded to pay those amounts.
