Year 2000

The process of transfer to Accounts department was on the way. I remember the departmental officer of TRD Mr. Mendhekar, (Very very angry man) who does not want the transfer delayed my application for transfer. Later on pressure from Mr. Sanjay Kumar has forwarded. The transfer of department was to be approved by Head of Departments, i.e. from the office of Garden Reach, and this was taking much time. So Mr. Sanjay Kumar approached somewhere and has issued letter for inter-departmental transfer on deputation basis till approved by HODs. By then the order came, my departmental officer Sr.DEE/TRD has been changed and he also having an ego problem with Sr.DAO delaying my release from my existing department. Later on an afternoon after having argument with Sr.DAO had scolded me, and told my immediate supervisor for my release. It was 25th of August 2000, Friday, and I joined Accounts department the same day evening but paper work done on 28th August, Monday.

My days of work in Accounts department were very good to me. After working in TRD the environment is completely changed. Earlier I was among all low literate people and they do not have any thing left for modifying or making them better. Whereas in Accounts many always engaged in official work and they are all learned.

The accounts office was on the first floor above the Sr.DPO office. I was posted in “Books Section” on recommendation from Mr. Sanjib Majumder, and this was really a good section with good supervisor. My section in charge was Mr. Sanath Banerjee Sr.SO/Books/Bilaspur and he always liked me and other staff of his section. Actually he is simple and good person. My other collegues there were Mr. Sudarshan Gupta, AA/Bilaspur, Mr. Venkat Rao JAA/Bilaspur, Mrs. Mahima Topno, AA/BSP, Mr. Biju.K.B, JAA/Bilaspur, Mr. Kar, AA/Bilaspur, and Mrs. Kujur, AA/Bilaspur, later joined Mr. Bipul Biswas, JAA/Bilaspur.

Mr. Sudarshan Gupta, we used to call him Gupta-ji was our team leader, though sometimes harsh in talking but always used to favour every one of us. If anyone has any problem and has to leave the office, Gupta-ji allows to make him go, and managing the boss. In the beginning, I used to dislike due to his harsh talks, but slowly realising his decisions, his equal treatment and other things, I started liking him. He is always ready to help.
