[Letter to Mr Raghavendra Pratap Singh]

Summary

This two-page correspondence from the Swatantra Party’s Bombay office, dated September 22, 1959, records two separate remittances of Rs. 2,500 each. Both cheques were sent under the instructions of Mr. S. Y. Krishnaswamy, and the letters request official receipts from the respective recipients in Lucknow and Vijayawada.

The letters are signed on behalf of the Swatantra Party by R. C. Cooper, identified as Honorary Treasurer. One cheque is addressed to Sri Raghavendra Pratap Singh, Treasurer of the Swatantra Party in Lucknow; the other is addressed to Sri G. Venkatasubbayya, Convenor of the party in Vijayawada. The documents provide administrative and financial evidence of the party’s regional organisation in 1959, but do not explain the purpose of the payments beyond noting Krishnaswamy’s instructions.
