India Post — Collection of penalty for Return of cheque due to Signature mismatch.

Address:

New no. 12, 4 th Street, Surendarnagar, Adambakkam, Chennai-600088

I have presented an MIS Application with a Cheque no. 016479 dt 07.07.21 drawn on Allahabad Bank ( Indian Bank ) for Rs 48000 to Adambakkam S.O. But on 24.7.21 my cheque was returned as " Signature mismatch " and Rs 118 was collected from me as fine. A person's signature may slightly vary due to biological reasons such as efflux of time or nervous debility etc. But to collect a fine of Rs 118 is unethical and illogical ! Rejecting the cheque is OK but collecting a fine is incorrect. So, Kindly refund this fine of Rs 118 immediately. Otherwise, I have no other alternative than to file a case
