Combining two queries into one without using UNION ALL

I have the following two mysql queries and I am trying to combine them into one.

Query 1:

$getData = $this->db->query("SELECT *,accounts.name AS DebitAccountName ,debit_side.amount AS DebitAmount
    FROM credit_side
    LEFT JOIN debit_side ON debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
    LEFT JOIN transaction_info ON transaction_info.transaction_id = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
    LEFT JOIN accounts ON accounts.code = credit_side.account_code 
    WHERE debit_side.account_code='1001'");

Query 2:

 $getData = $this->db->query(SELECT *,accounts.name AS CreditAccountName,credit_side.amount AS CreditAmount
    FROM debit_side
    LEFT JOIN credit_side ON debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
    LEFT JOIN transaction_info ON transaction_info.transaction_id = debit_side.transaction_id_dr
    LEFT JOIN accounts ON accounts.code = debit_side.account_code 
    WHERE credit_side.account_code='1001'");

I have tried UNION ALL but this is actually not working in this case, The problem is when I echo $DebitAccountName it displays the results of $CreditAccountName as well, which I don't want.

I am using Codeigniter, and in my view file I aim to echo the results like this.

 <?php if(count($records) > 0) { ?>

<?php foreach ($records as $row){ ?>

<?php echo $row['DebitAccountName']; ?> 
  <?php echo $row['DebitAmount']; ?>

<?php echo $row['CreditAccountName']; ?> 
  <?php echo $row['CreditAmount']; ?>

Would you please kindly help me get the two queries into one?

Thanks in Advance :)

I have combined these queryies 

        $data   =   array(
                  'debit_side.account_code    Code',
                  'group_concat(distinct accounts.name) as DebitAccount',
                  'group_concat(debit_side.amount) as DebitAmount',
                  'group_concat(transaction_info.voucher_date) as DebitVoucherDate',
                  '(SELECT group_concat(distinct accounts.name) as CreditAccount FROM (accounts)
                    left JOIN debit_side ON accounts.code = debit_side.account_code
                    left JOIN credit_side ON debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
                    left JOIN transaction_info ON transaction_info.transaction_id = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
                    group by credit_side.account_code
                    having credit_side.account_code = `Code`) as CreditAccount',
                  '(SELECT  group_concat(credit_side.amount) as CreditAmount FROM (accounts)
                     left JOIN debit_side ON accounts.code = debit_side.account_code
                     left JOIN credit_side ON debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
                     left JOIN transaction_info ON transaction_info.transaction_id = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
                   group by credit_side.account_code
                   having credit_side.account_code = `Code`) as CreditAmount',  
                  '(SELECT  group_concat(transaction_info.voucher_date) as CreditVoucherDate FROM (accounts)
                    left JOIN debit_side ON accounts.code = debit_side.account_code
                    left JOIN credit_side ON debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
                    left JOIN transaction_info ON transaction_info.transaction_id = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
                    group by credit_side.account_code
                    having credit_side.account_code = `Code`) as CreditVoucherDate'

                );
    $this->db->select($data);
    $this->db->from('accounts');
    $this->db->join('credit_side','accounts.code = credit_side.account_code','left');
    $this->db->join('debit_side','debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr','left');
    $this->db->join('transaction_info','transaction_info.transaction_id = credit_side.transaction_id_cr','left');
    $this->db->group_by('debit_side.account_code');
    $this->db->order_by('debit_side.account_code','ASC');
    $query  =   $this->db->get();
    return  $query->result_array();

For simplicity sake, I've left out the transaction_info JOIN:

SELECT debacc.name AS DebitAccountName, debit_side.amount AS DebitAmount,
    credacc.name AS CreditAccountName, credit_side.amount AS CreditAmount
FROM debit_side
LEFT JOIN credit_side ON debit_side.transaction_id_dr = credit_side.transaction_id_cr
LEFT JOIN accounts credacc ON credacc.code = credit_side.account_code
LEFT JOIN accounts debacc ON debacc.code = debit_side.account_code
WHERE debit_side.account_code='1001'

This query references the accounts table twice, once for debit side, once for credit side. This allows you to show info from both sides of the transaction.

Why don't you use SELECT from both tables (debit_side and credit_side)? Of course with all JOINs you need for each table.
