Re: collection of cheque

If there is no commissioner for the city and only for the State, the Bank can collect it for the commissioner of the State. The Commissioner who is only for the State and not limited to the city "A" can refuse the cheque and direct it to be drawn in favour of Commissioner,"B". The Bank instead of collecting it for the Commissioner of the State is in order in returning the cheque to be correctly drawn.
