How you used to get salary by fund transfer or by cheque?

You have mentioned the both.

If it is through a cheque no body can encash your cheque.

If it is through fund transfer, there may be some mistake on the part of the bank.

I dont see any fraudulent act of the bank as well as the principal.

My suggestion is dont exaggerate the mistake as a criminal conspiracy.

I completely disagree with both the experts. As per facts given in the query, the transfer of funds by way of joint cheque was required to allocated as per salary sheet but fradulantly it was solely transferred in the salary account of individual account of PRINCIPAL. It is a fraud. Not only for this month, this problem say fraud shall occur each and every month as per statement of Bank Manager. Staff may approach to the higher officials of department and may seek strict action against such Principal.

The information of the querist does not seem to be complete or correct. The following questions arise out of his query:

1) Is the Principal of the school, himself a Drawing & Disbursing Officer?

2) Whether the Principal endorses both the pass & pay order on the salary bill or some other authority endorses the pay order and provide funds?

3) Whether the cheque was drawn in the personal name of the Principal and also signed by himself, or in the name of the school for credit in the school's public account?
