AIBOC General Secretary Rupam Roy shared that “Key themes issued during the triennial council were the importance and significance of the public sector, how the public sector is instrumental for the progress of the country and its common citizens. Why common citizens have to bear the burnt of a higher interest rate? Why do Banks subsidize the corporate loans through low-priced deposits and high-priced loans of the common public? The dwindling fate of Small Credits. And Why are Public Sector Banks Under-staffed and who suffers and what needs to be done, were discussed amongst other issues concerning the members.” (ANI)
