Dehradun, Nov 16: Vigilance officials of Uttarakhand police on Wednesday struck paydirt when they found Rs 2,11,53,000 cash in Rs 1000 and Rs 500 denominations stuffed inside the SBI locker owned by state drug controller Dharam Singh.
It took nearly two and a half hours for the Vigilance staff to borrow SBI's counting machine to count the notes.
Rs 62,64,000 were in Rs 1000 denominations, while Rs 1,48,89,500 were in Rs 500 denominations, Uttarakhand DGP Satyavrat Bansal said.
Dharam Singh was earlier Assistant Drugs Controller and had taken charge as Drugs Controller only a year ago. He was literally minting money and stuffing them inside his locker, Vigilance officials said.
