Next time someone tells you private banks have better service than PSBs, show them this. @FederalBankLtd is paying Rs 2.5 lakh for illegally holding property papers long after a loan was closed. PSBs might not have flashy PR, but they are the true backbone of trustworthy banking.

[The Banker’s Voice @TheBankersVoice]

Thousands of PSB branches are functioning with just 2-3 employees, expected to handle everything, from cash and customer service to loans, government schemes, compliance, digital banking and recovery.

Yet, instead of asking why branches are chronically understaffed, employees are expected to sacrifice even basic lunch breaks in the name of customer service.

Why doesn’t the regulator inspect whether a branch has adequate manpower before issuing customer service directives ?

Why aren’t banks held accountable for operating with dangerously inadequate staffing ?

Is employee welfare not a regulatory concern ?

A strong banking system cannot be built by overburdening a handful of employees while celebrating record profits and dividends.

Bank employees are not a limitless resource. If customer service matters, adequate staffing must become a regulatory mandate, not an afterthought.

Accountability must be fixed on those who regulate and those who own Public Sector Banks.

Bankers don’t need sympathy. They need adequate manpower, humane working conditions, and regulators willing to enforce them.

What exactly is an E20-compliant vehicle? By definition, it's a vehicle engineered to safely and reliably run on E20 fuel. That also implies a non-E20-compliant vehicle is not designed for E20. Otherwise, the term "compliant" becomes meaningless.

So my question to Mr. @nitin_gadkari is simple: Why was E20 fuel rolled out nationwide when most vehicles on Indian roads were not E20-compliant?

If the answer is, "Nothing happens. Non-compliant vehicles can also run on E20," then what was the rationale behind mandating manufacturers to produce E20-compliant vehicles in the first place? Either E20 compatibility is technically necessary, in which case introducing E20 before the vehicle fleet was ready was questionable. Or it isn't necessary, in which case the compliance requirement itself appears redundant.

You can't simultaneously argue that E20 compliance is important enough to mandate for new vehicles, yet claim it doesn't matter because older, non-compliant vehicles can run on E20 anyway.

By the same logic, why stop at E20? Why not go full aatm-nirbhar and switch directly to E100? If compatibility doesn't matter, then non-E100-compliant vehicles should run on E100 too. Clearly, that's not how engineering works. So where exactly is the technical justification?

Why lateral recruitment for Scale III and Scale IV? Are the existing staff not knowledgeable or competent enough to be promoted?

Lateral recruitment at higher scales reduces promotional opportunities for employees who have served the Bank with loyalty and dedication for years.

Vehicle buyers pay huge upfront taxes, fees, and cesses. In return, they deserve the basic right to buy the exact fuel their vehicle engines were designed to run on.

If the govt wanted to "experiment" with E20 fuel, they should have done it responsibly by either buying a sample fleet of second-hand cars to test in a controlled settings or invite willing citizens to opt-in using subsidized fuel.

Forcing a mandatory policy onto everyone first and checking if it damages their engines later is outrageous. Treating the entire public as involuntary test subjects is a massive overreach.

Despite the nationwide shift to E20 petrol, the large majority of vehicles currently on Indian roads estimated at over 80–90%, are not certified as E20-compliant. As we know most of the pre-2023 models were designed only for E10 or lower blends!

For most INDIANs, our vehicle is the second most expensive asset that we will purchase!
