PIB News Update: As per the Union Finance Minister’s directive to Public Sector Banks (PSBs) in September, 2019, Customer Outreach Programmes were conducted by PSBs in participation with other banks and NBFCs in 226 districts (from 01.10.2019 to 09.10.2019) in Phase – I and 148 districts (from 21.10.2019 to 25.10.2019) in Phase – II.
