The bank's general manager, Kapil Pathak, has immediately suspended Pawan Kumar Pal, the branch manager at the time, Ajay Kumar, Sushil Kumar Gautam, and Pawan Kumar, the assistant cashier. In this situation, two FIRs have already been filed.
These four played a major part in the swindle, according to a preliminary departmental inquiry. They were suspended even before the police inquiry started to make sure it wouldn't interfere with the probe. The entire situation is being looked upon by the police station.
Additionally, 205 account holders' accounts are being carefully examined by the police agency. These individuals are accused of committing a major fraud totaling ₹21.47 crore. The Gonda branch started this scheme in December 2021 when loan disbursements were used as a revenue stream.
Bank staff are accused of deceiving people. Guidelines state that before loans are disbursed, eligibility, income certification, collateral, and field verification are required. But these regulations were broken most of the time. The documents were simply on paper, and the borrowers did not own the originals. Under its zero-tolerance policy, the Uttar Pradesh government and department are acting to combat this fraud and corruption.
