Banerjee continued to work with the ASI in eastern India.

Archaeologist PK Mishra later accused then ASI chief John Marshall of suppressing Banerjee's findings and claiming credit for the discovery himself.

Interestingly, Banerjee's reports on Mohenjo-daro were never published by the ASI.

Her book also sheds light on the controversies he was embroiled in during his time at the ASI.

In her book, The Life and Works of Rakhaldas Banerji, author Yama Pande notes how Banerjee joined the ASI as an excavation assistant in 1910 and rose quickly within the ranks to become a superintending archaeologist in western India in 1917.
