Postmaster steals 50L, on the run.
In the city of Rourkela, a disturbing case of fraud has come to light involving postal workers and the hard-earned money of depositors. It has been reported that the postmaster of Kumjharia post office, Kuntilata Ganju, has gone missing after allegedly stealing more than Rs 50 lakh from various postal savings accounts. This incident has caused a great deal of public outcry and anger.

On Tuesday, a group of depositors gathered outside the post office and refused to let any other staff members enter. The situation escalated quickly and the Kuanrmunda police had to intervene to calm down the mob. The depositors claimed that the postmaster had disappeared since May 8, 2024, after embezzling their money. This shocking revelation has left them feeling betrayed and cheated.

It all started when one woman visited the post office to withdraw some money and was met with delays and excuses from the postmaster. When she didn't receive a satisfactory response, she decided to go to the main post office at Kuanrmunda. To her surprise, she found that her account balance was zero. She immediately filed a complaint with the police in Biramitrapur. As the news spread, more depositors rushed to the post office to check on the status of their accounts. Unfortunately, they were met with the same unfortunate reality and this led to their agitation.

In response to the situation, the assistant superintendent of Rourkela Postal Division has assured the depositors that their money will be returned after a thorough departmental enquiry. He also stated that the authorities were aware of the issue for a month now and are taking appropriate action to ensure that the guilty are punished. "We are committed to giving justice to the depositors and they will receive their rightful money back," he added.

This incident has caused a great deal of distress and inconvenience to the depositors who trusted the post office with their savings. It is truly disheartening to see such dishonesty and betrayal from those who are supposed to handle our money with care and integrity. We can only hope that the authorities take swift action to resolve this matter and bring justice to the affected depositors.
