Bank’s 18th Foundation Day
On the occasion of Paschim Banga Gramin Bank's 18th Foundation Day, the bank has joined hands with M-Swasth to inaugurate 18 E-Clinics within its branches.
Liquor baron Vijay Mallya was arrested by the Scotland Yard in London on Tuesday following India’s request for his extradition in financial irregularities and loan default case. Mallya owes Rs 9,000 (including taxes) to 17 banks in India.
These banks are trying to recover some of the huge loan amount by auctioning his properties in the country.
The recently held auction of Mallya’s mansion in Goa is a recent example of the banks’ efforts to recover loans. Businessman Sachiin Joshi bought the villa for Rs 73.01 crore.
