What is the journal entry for cash withdrawn from bank?

In this modern business world, Banks performs various functions to an organization such as it accepts various deposits from the debtors, making payment to the creditors on the standing instructions of the company. Banks provide various agency and miscellaneous services to an organization.

The Journal entry for cash withdrawn from the bank is a contra entry. Cash can be taken from the bank for two uses either for personal use (or) business use. I am assuming that cash is withdrawn from the bank for business use.
