Mr Sampath-The Printer of Malgudi, the Financial Expert, Waiting for the Mahatma
“He refused to transact his business at the counter; he had to do it sitting in a chair in the Manager’s room. But he found someone talking to the Manager and he had to wait outside for a moment. It was a crowded hour. Margayya never liked to do his transactions through the counter window. He despised the clerks. It was a sign of prestige for a business man to get things done in a bank without standing at the little window.

He had the greatest contempt for savings bank operations: putting in money as if into a child’s money box and withdrawing no more than fifty rupees a week or some miserable amount, not through cheques but by writing on those pitiful withdrawal forms … Having a current account seemed to him a stamp of superiority, and a man who had two accounts, account number one and account number two, was a person of eminence.
