Decision follows easing in lockdown timings
Beginning June 1, bank branches in Telangana will have 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. as their business hours or the time when public is permitted to access services through such facilities. Announcing the new schedule, following a meeting on Monday, the State Level Bankers’ Committee (SLBC) said besides adhering to the business hours, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., the branches will need to close by 4 p.m. The change, from the 8 a.m. to 12 noon working hours that the banks adopted following the State government-announced lockdown about a fortnight ago, comes in the backdrop of a relaxation in the lockdown, daily, from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. The new bank timing will be in force, till the lockdown ends on June 9. “If required, the same would be reviewed for further extension,” SLBC Convenor and SBI General Manager Krishan Sharma said.More Related News
