Section 138 creates an offence for which the mental elements are not necessary. It is enough if a cheque is drawn by the accused on an account maintained by him with a banker for payment of any amount of money to another person from out of that account for discharge in whole or in part, of any debt or other liability due. Therefore, whenever the cheques are on account of insufficiency of funds or reasons referable to the drawer’s liability to provide for funds, the provisions of Section 138 of the Act would be attracted, and for this offence, he shall, be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to two years, or with a fine which may extend to twice the amount of the cheque.
