(c) Recurring Deposit Account in any of the Scheduled Banks.

Note: (i) A Post Office Saving Bank Deposit will be accepted as security, provided that the depositor has signed and delivered to the Postmaster a letter in the prescribed form.

(ii) Alternatively, security, in the form of cash may be offered with a request that it be deposited in the Post Office Saving Bank in the name of the pledgee. In the latter case, the pledgee shall send a letter through the person who has to furnish the security explaining the nature of security and requiring the Post Master to receive the deposit and issue the pass book in his (the pledgee's name). The person who is to furnish the security shall present a letter at the Post Office with the requisite amount in cash and the Saving Bank index card in the prescribed form signed at the foot by the pledgee. The Post Master will deliver the Saving Bank Passbook to the person pledging the security. The latter shall transmit without delay to the pledgee.

(2) Interest - An employee shall have the right to the annual interest on the securities other than those furnished in cash. Provided that in the event of any employee causing any loss to the Board, the interest due to him under this regulation shall be withheld, until the question of recovery or otherwise of such loss is settled.

(3) Period of retention - A security deposit shall be retained at least for six months from the date when he vacates his post, but the security bond shall be retained permanently or until it is certain that there is no further need for keeping it. While returning any security deposit, his acknowledgement shall be obtained duly signed and witnessed. When an interest bearing security is returned or retransferred the acknowledgement shall set forth full particulars of the security.

(4) Return of Security deposit and security bond when an employee is transferred - When an employee who has furnished security in one office is transferred to another office under the control of the Board, the security shall be retained by the first office until the period specified in the security bond has expired, so that any amount ordered to be recovered during that period in respect of his service in the first office may be recovered from him. On the expiry of the specified period the employee who took the security shall release it from the pledgee in his favour and pass it on to the Head of the Office to which the employee has been transferred, requesting him to return it to the pledger to get a fresh security bond executed by him and to have the security duly pledged in favour of the proper authority to the extent necessary.

He shall ascertain from the Head of the Office from which the employee is transferred, what amount of security he furnished therefore before it is passed on, and shall then decide whether that security will be sufficient or whether the employee shall be required to furnish security for the whole or any part of the amount.

(5) Nomination - The employee may nominate a person to receive the security deposit in the event of his death while in service or before the security in refunded.

(b) Negligence of duty resulting in loss to the Board: Forfeiture of an amount equivalent to the loss involved.

(c) Loss caused by negligence or inefficiency: Recovery of actual loss.

Note: Any action taken under this provision shall not prejudice the authority of the Board to impose any punishment upon the employee under the service regulations applicable to him.
