money, and the 50 tons of wheat given them for getting the road repaired by T.R. had<br />
vanished without the road being touched.<br />
Further, the allegations the DCIO had made to me vs. Hannan Choudhury were disproved<br />
from what I heard here. Tremendous in-fighting within themselves had given rise to such<br />
calumnies, but Kamaruzzaman had personally approved of Choudhury & told him to<br />
continue his work.<br />
In the Treasury I sat with the Dy. Accountant and learnt about compilation. Daily the<br />
accounts are checked as follows:-<br />
Payments (total of the following):-<br />
Gross Amount [includes Transfers]<br />
Reserve Bank Deposit<br />
Misclassifications (by Bank)<br />
Central Deposits.<br />
Net Receipts (total should equal payments):<br />
Central<br />
Provincial<br />
R.B Deposits<br />
Transfers<br />
I asked them a question which foxed them all. Now in the R.B register, if Receipts exceed<br />
Debits, the balance is classed not under Cash Account but under list of payments. If debits are<br />
more, then put in Cash Account. This is the system; but WHY ?<br />
Dinesh Chakraborty, the Treasurer after a while brought me the answer from Account Code<br />
Vol-2, Art. 52 (Daily closing of Accounts). Since the daily balance must be NIL, payments =<br />
receipts, hence if receipts exceed debit, the balance has to be shown under List of Payments<br />
to make the balance ‘nil’.<br />
Dinesh Babu is the nicest person I have met here-- very cool, ever smiling, perfectly<br />
courteous and with a very clear grasp of everything. He has taken up Treasurer’s job as it is<br />
least strenuous and he is due to retire.<br />
My pay slip has yet to arrive despite Mr. Banerjee’s having given the details to the concerned<br />
officer. Today the other members of the Audit party took the details from me & told me in<br />
the AG one must always go to the clerk concerned & not the head of department. They knew<br />
the person & would ensure I got the pay slip very soon.<br />
Lesson: always be on good terms with audit/accounts department!<br />
Note that though Treasury is supposed to compile daily accounts, they have to do this next<br />
day, backdating it, as the bank never sends their daily accounts in full that very day. This<br />
month Treasury is sending the 1 st to 10 th accounts only this week because numerous mistakes<br />
occurred in recording transfers, necessitating numerous erasures and corrections.<br />
Meeting with BDOs was a repetition of earlier instructions. However, we are falling short of<br />
wheat for TR—only 570 tons are available for 15 blocks. DM referred them to me as<br />
“Director-General of Evacuee Movement & Transport” when they wanted to know when<br />
their surplus ration would be lifted! It is fun to be wholly in charge of vehicles!<br />
