As per reports, the bak sent several notices to Das to return money while explaining that it was accidentally credited to his account.

Das however refused to do so claiming the money “was sent by Prime Minister Narendra Modi”.

“I was very happy when I received the money in March this year. I thought as Prime Minister Narendra Modi had promised everyone of depositing Rs 15 lakh in their bank account,I thought that it could be the first installment of it. I have spent all the money. Now, I did not have money in my bank account,” Das, who has been arrested, said in a statement to police.
