Rs 752 crore lying
unclaimed with postal department :
LUCKNOW: A
huge balance of Rs 752.44 crore is lying unclaimed in different post offices in
the country. The postal authorities have not taken any step to return the money
to the legitimate claimants. In response to an RTI query by activist Subhash
Agrawal, the postal department said that the money is lying unclaimed in 2.49
crore accounts. The central information commisison, however, has now directed
the postal authorities to reveal 100 largest amounts lying unclaimed out of the
total 2 crore accounts. The
money can be withdrawn from these accounts through fraud and may not reach the
natural claimant, said the activist. The information about such accounts will
ensure transparency.//times of india 13.09.2013//
