The matter came to light after the All Bogong Students’ Union (ABSU) hung a banner at the bank's entrance today making people aware about the illegal and undue act of few bank officials. “We have been getting complaints and requests from many aggrieved customers to raise the issue so that the practices of few corrupt bank officials can be checked”, said Siang Moyong, General Secretary, ABSU.
Meanwhile, speaking to this scribe, SBI Pasighat, Chief Manager, Promod Kumar said that he has not received any complaints from customers till date. “If I get a valid and genuine complaint from any customer who has been charged extra money or bribe to clear loan, I will surely take action," Kumar said.
