Lakhs of termite-infested cash recovered from Surendranath college union room
Lakhs of rupees in termite-damaged cash were discovered inside a cupboard in the union room of Surendranath College, prompting questions about the source of the funds and how they remained stored there for an extended period.
The cash came to light during an inspection of the college premises, when officials found bundles of currency notes concealed inside the cupboard. A substantial portion of the money had reportedly been damaged by termites, suggesting it had been left untouched for a long time.
The discovery has sparked concerns over financial management and record-keeping practices within the institution. Authorities are expected to investigate the origin of the cash, verify whether it was officially accounted for, and assess the extent of the damage to the currency.
College officials and relevant authorities are also likely to examine the circumstances under which the money was stored in the union room and whether established procedures were followed. Further details are expected to emerge as the inquiry progresses.
