Corrected Text: I am a retired bank officer of the e-Allahabad Bank, retired on 31.07.2019. On 12.07.2019, I received a charge sheet from our ZO Gonda regarding certain acts of commission when I was posted as branch head in Sadullanagar branch from 23.04.2007 to 03.07.2010. I vehemently refused all the charges in writing. Then the bank informed me that after my retirement, a departmental inquiry will be instituted.
Meanwhile, my retirement benefits were held by the bank except for my P.F. contribution. During the inquiry period, it transpired to me that this charge sheet was issued to me only after a complaint from a borrower who was sanctioned a tractor loan and a KCC loan by me on 26.02.2010. During the inquiry period, I had clearly proved that the complaint was pseudonymous. However, the IO and DA did not agree with me. The bank passed an order for the recovery of Rs. 200,000 from my terminal dues and released the same after 2 years.
What action should I take now?
