The bank manager himself got trapped while trying to maintain a relationship in financial transactions ...

- Crimewatch-Mahesh Yagnik

- I told him I was trying to save your job and reputation. How can a person who has met a stranger for the first time in his life have faith in such a thing?

Co Rona's fear was lessened so the elders of the Society met in the evening on the benches arranged in the common plot of the flat. Today, Haribhai put a personal question in front of everyone, so it was a struggle. At the same time, Ganesh Abhyankar's car came in the parking lot. 'Haribhai, call Ganeshdada. If he says that, your son will agree. '

Ganesh Abhyankar was a player in politics. As a high-ranking worker, he had personal relationships with big heads, yet he loved to work behind the scenes. Instead of a robe, trousers or jacket, branded shirt-pants and leather shoes were his permanent attire. When someone's complicated work was stuck in the society, a solution was coming from one of Ganesha's phones. Due to this, Ganesh Abhyankar, 55, was affectionately called Ganeshdada.

Haribhai raised his hand so Ganesh came there and arranged among all. None of the seven elders wore a mask so Ganesh would take off his mask and put it aside. 'Speak, Harikaka, why did you remember?'

'The eldest son insists on getting another flat.' Haribhai said.

'Give it to me.' Ganesh said immediately. 'Fall into the scheme of a good builder. There is a recession, so the butcher is so tight. After that, I will give as much benefit as possible by coming together. '

'It's a little different.' Haribhai explained. 'Don't take a loan and pay the installment, all the flats are confiscated by the bank and then auctioned? My son watches all those newspaper ads. Says it will get cheaper from this. Ganeshdada, I am a primitive man. When a man's house is snatched away, his gut cracks. Its sigh will take away our wealth. I refuse but he has won. I don't know what to do with the daily grind. '

'Don't worry.' Ganesh put his hand on Haribhai's shoulder. The condition of the seller should be checked when buying a house. Is it a curse or a blessing? Sigh or Malkata gives the key to the mouth? It affects the life of the buyer. Bring your son at night. I will talk about my own experience. Then he will give up. '

'Ganeshdada, the benefit of your satsang is very little.' Jitubhai insisted laughing. 'Tell us now.' Ganesha's style of speaking was such that the listeners enjoyed it.

'Sure.' Ganesh opened his mouth. 'You were all members already, but I bought this flat eighteen years ago. After coming to this house, I have got many times more than expected .. 'Ganesh Abhyankar's voice was full of openness. 'If I take up a project that seems impossible, it will be easy to overcome. The story of buying this flat is like a crime story. '

When it came to crime, everyone's curiosity increased. The elders, seated at the end of the bench, slipped slightly closer. Ganesh came to the original point by looking in front of everyone's face at the same time. Everyone was listening intently, knowing that he would never stop.

'Eighteen years ago Ahmedabad was new to me. Although the budget for buying a house was also limited, there was a desire to buy a flat in Vastrapur area only. Every Sunday, after reading the small advertisements of Gujarat Samachar carefully and dripping the address, Shubhangi and I would leave in the morning. If you like a flat somewhere, you don't like the flat if you get it within the budget. One Sunday we rushed here to see the flat after seeing the announcement that Urgent was going to sell the flat. Saw the flat was locked. If the mobile was connected, it was constantly busy. Hearing that information in Marathi, I came to know that the party is in Maharashtra. When asked in the flat next door, Khokhanibhai said that the owner Nadkarnikaka lives in Mumbai. Last week, he said that he was coming to Ahmedabad on Sunday, but did not come. Sensing the frustration on our faces, Khokhanibhai said, "If you want to see, look at our flat." Both our flats are the same and the interior work is done by the same mason. We saw his flat and liked it beforehand. Nadkarni's flat, which was advertised, was facing east, so Manoman decided that now this is our home!

I was born and raised in Mumbai. Even one acre of politics is stuck there. So sat on the train at night. The manager of the advertiser Nadkarni Bank and his full address was obtained from Khokhanibhai. Arrived at the bank at twelve o'clock. I sat on the sofa outside, sending the card to her chamber. Suddenly three policemen came and entered the chamber. Leaving their respective chairs, the bank staff also came there. Anxious, they all stood outside the chamber, listening to the rumblings inside. The bells of the policemen were heard but nothing was heard. Fifteen minutes later, when the raid came out, I went inside and Nadkarni was sitting holding his head between his hands. I said I come from Ahmedabad. Liked your flat so came straight.

I said as soon as his eyes lit up. Sure .. let's finish tomorrow. I need fifteen lakhs immediately .. He said this so I looked in front of him in amazement and explained that sir! I have seen twenty two flats in that area. The price of eleven-twelve lakhs is going on .. As if I said this, as if it had not entered his mind, he kept on insisting that I need fifteen lakhs immediately. Then Manoman calculated and said that O.K. Two lakh will be provided. You give thirteen lakhs ..

The police had just threatened him, and the way he was speaking now made me think of the 58-year-old's mental state. Have a problem? I asked with a torso and said with full sympathy that if you don't mind, speak up. I have an acquaintance in Mumbai, I will try to help you.

The drowning man was staring at me as he stared at the sparks. After drinking both glasses of water lying on the table, Lagir recovered but his eyes got wet.

I am trapped .. According to what he said in a trembling voice, the joint account of a Gujarati partnership firm in his branch had been running for years. There was a provision that money could be withdrawn only if both Ramanik and Vasant signed the partner's check. But after the two often come to the branch and form a personal relationship, sometimes it happens that Ramanik comes and withdraws money from his own signature. By evening or the next day Vasant will sign the check. If there is an emergency and Ramanik is not present, Vasant will come alone and take the money. Mutual trust has never been a problem in this transaction. One Fine Morning, Spring came to the bank. The total balance in the account was fifteen lakh six thousand rupees. Vasant signed it and withdrew Rs 15 lakh. Then Ramanik did not show up for another signature for three days so Nadkarni called. Hey sir, you killed Locho .. Ramanik exploded. Our partnership has been severed. Now you will die! .. Nadkarni's mind went crazy. Dude, we're just going out of our way to help you out. Should you report your divorce? It was done .. now you come and sign .. but Ramanik did not believe. He hung up the phone saying I would file a police complaint.

A team of superiors of the bank rushed to the spot after the police complaint. In addition to the show cause notice for criminal negligence in duty, the bank had given twenty-five days to deposit Rs 15 lakh. Due to this, Nadkarni had to sell the flat immediately. Earlier, when he had a job in Ahmedabad, he bought this flat to settle in Ahmedabad after retirement in the future ... '

After saying this, Ganesh Abhyankar stopped and looked in front of all the listeners. There was curiosity and eagerness on everyone's face.

'Even after realizing the truth in the man's voice, I asked all the staff. Everyone was sympathetic to Nadkarni. Everyone said that innocent Nadkarni has been trapped. My train was at night. There was no other work in Mumbai. Seeing Nadkarni's helpless poor face and determined to use my political connections to help him, I took the details of the police case from him and arrested him saying that I am trying to save your job and reputation. How can a person who has met a stranger for the first time in his life have faith in such a thing? Still, he was staring at me with hope.

Big Gajana was acquainted with the then cabinet minister so went there in a taxi. Saheb was not in Mumbai but his personal secretary made him talk on the phone. I told the story briefly. He instructed the PA. PA's voice was muffled while talking to the in-charge of Borivali police station. After finishing his talk, he told me to meet Inspector Shinde there and work would be done. I went to the police station. It was the order of the minister so Shinde welcomed me. I listened intently to the whole thing and became absorbed in the thought. Don't be foolish enough to maintain a relationship by following the rules in financial transactions. Anyway, to save an innocent, you have come with a reference that I have to find a way .. He called the writer and discussed the problem with her .. '

'I have never seen a policeman as practical and sharp-witted as a writer. He immediately called Nadkarni to the police station with a check. Frightened, Nadkarni came running. After placing the check on Shinde's table, the writer seated Nadkarni in another room.

Shinde called and ordered Ramanik to come immediately. Ramanik came in twenty minutes. As soon as he came to Shinde's cabin, Shinde started shouting at him. Did you notify the bank manager that your partnership has been terminated? Ramanik shook his head in denial. Did you know that Bicharo was giving you money with a signature to help you? Ramanik nodded. In addition to the slap in the room, Shinde asked with a smirk. Then your mother .. did you make a wrong case? Ramanik was trembling. Shinde looked in front of the constable and instructed. Put a piece of marijuana in this bastard's pocket and fit it in the case of narcotics so that he knows what happens when the wrong case happens! Hearing that, Ramanik fell straight at Shinde's feet. Put your hands together and say that I will withdraw the case.

The writer kicked Ramanik and raised him .. We will do all that, you sign here .. He held the check of fifteen lakhs in front of Ramanik. Ramanik quickly signed. With the last blow, Shinde chased him away. Ordered tea and called Nadkarni inside. He grabbed the check in his hand and asked if there was any concern now. Nadkarni is looking at the check as if it is not believed. Then with a twinkle in his eye, he grabbed Shinde's legs .. Now be careful .. Shinde explained. The mistake that can easily get your claim denied is to fail. Understand? In response, Nadkarni's eyes were filled with tears. '

Abhyankar paused and looked in front of everyone.

Amidst the excitement of Diwali at the bank, the staff members were staring at me in amazement and respect as if I was a magician. Now that flat is yours .. saving my job and reputation is a big deal. Give me one lakh rupees as token .. Nadkarni looked at me with wet eyes. I told him that it was your nobility to make this offer. But it is not my sacrament to repay by doing favors. Come to Ahmedabad tomorrow. Decide our deal in eleven lakhs! Other than that, I don't want a flat. In the end, he agreed to take one lakh. '

At present, Ganesh Abhyankar's voice is mixed with that memory.

'Just then I moved into this flat. With Nadkarni's blessings and best wishes, I was able to find success in a way that surprised me ..! ' (Based on the facts: The names of the characters have changed.)
