The police asked about the money, my client had given explanation that he bring the money from his agricultural sale proceeds and to took the once used vehicle. my client had taken his pan just before 3-4 months he is not an assessee, his source of income is agriculture, more over the police personal did not accept the same, they  seized the cash, due to election commision of india code is in force. the police made panchanama and seized amount handed over to incometax department.

My Friend,

Give explanation to the ITO that this Rs. has been earned by the assessee not from current year but for many years.

the assessee is a farmer hence it is not possible for him to open bank a/c.

agar police wale koi bhav nahi dete to RIGHT TO INFORMATION ACT ke hisab se assessee ko kyu pakda gaya aese claim kiya ja sakta hai.

If you are saying it is from agricultural income, then it is for you to prove it.  What is the extent of land holding? What crops were raised? Was there any withdrawal from bank?

Going under the RTI Act is not going to help you. Don't resort to such steps which can actually be counter productive.
