A packet containing the notes had come to Deepak K Tampe, Dean of Maulana Azad Medical College (MAMC). The Dean sent the packet to vigilance department along with a letter saying he felt something “fishy” about the packet which contained two envelops one of which had the scrapped notes. The vigilance department after receiving the packet apprised and consulted the account section of the finance department on how to deal with the case. Official sources said the accounts department is mulling over the matter and is likely to give its opinion in the next two-three days. “The amount of Rs23,500 received was in 11 demonetised currency notes of 1,000 and the rest was in 500 demonetised notes,” official sources also said.
