Urmila, a woman from Kanpur who works as a domestic help, must have thought her #AchheDin finally came to pass when she got to know that a whopping amount of Rs 95,71,16,98, 647 was credited to her State Bank of India (SBI) account.

As part of the centre’s Jan Dhan Yojana, she had opened a savings account by depositing Rs 2000 with an #SBI branch in her locality Vikas Nagar in Kanpur. When she got the message from the bank saying this gargantuan amount was transferred to her kitty, she was shell-shocked.

She rushed to the bank with the account holder who helped her open the bank account. While her revelation left the bank officials stunned for a while, her doubts were put to rest. The staff explained a ‘fictional amount’ was transferred to her account as she didn’t have sufficient balance in her account.

However, all she wanted to ensure was that her hard-earned money amounting to Rs 2000 was not harmed in the whole process.
