If it was his money why was he silent for almost 6 months without making a claim. He must be asked to explain how he collected that much

How could Gota claims the money was his. Rs:17.85 is not a small amount.

Interesting to see how one can save such a large amount of money being in the job for 3years. Moreover, strange the Pres is paid in currency notes. Specially, a guy only talked of Oracle....

Just wait and see. This money will be returned to GR (if not done already) citing vague unverifiable reasons

First there must be a reasonable explanation of the source of such a large amount that too in cash. Secondly was it declared to the revenue agency.

CID should question him on how me made such a load of cash. When an average citizen makes a depsoit of 1 million the banks question them on source of funds.
