Cash described as termite-damaged and partly stored in a “secret room” is found in the union room of Surendranath College in Kolkata, according to reports. The discovery is made during a cleanliness drive ahead of the monsoon, when staff and volunteers search the area and uncover a space where cash is kept. Media accounts state the recovered money totals around Rs 1 crore. The cash is reportedly infested by termites and contains mostly Rs 100 and Rs 500 currency notes. The reports describe the find as unusual because of the concealed storage, with NDTV referring to it as a “secret room.” India Today also reports the value of the cash and its termite damage, focusing on the approximate amount and location within the college’s union room. Both outlets present the event as a local college incident discovered by cleaning staff rather than through a police raid. Details on how long the cash had been stored, who kept it, and whether officials are verifying its authenticity and counting it are not included in the provided summaries.
