A five-member team from the Income Tax Department’s Jodhpur unit conducted a two-day survey at the main branch of Jaisalmer Central Cooperative Bank, examining suspicious bank accounts and financial transactions, media reports say.
The exercise is linked to an earlier operation at the Jaisalmer sub-registrar’s office, where over 170 allegedly suspicious property registration documents were seized. Officials are scrutinising transactions of Rs 2 lakh and above, verifying account records and the flow of funds, including those related to government schemes.
The bank’s Managing Director, Ved Prakash Saini, said the bank fully cooperated and provided all documents sought by the officials.
