Since the earnest money will eventually be returned, It comes under 'deposits'. The entry posted by CA Kedar is correct.

Handling deposit and withdrawal cash are the primary work of the clerk. Along with that clerk also undertakes the receipt of cheques, drafts, dividend warrants, and pay orders. Payment clearance works like Verify cheques, issue demand drafts, etc. Maintain a daily record of balance. for further information must visit following source

what is EMD Demand draft Under 

Emd is security deposit or which categories it will be come

It will comes under Deposits as Current Assets.

Government can withhold the earnest money deposit and it wont give interest on it either. Keep this in mind while accounting it. Some tenders have very high EMD. Check NHAI tenders for example.
