“After my joining this Pasighat Branch in August I have often contacted some of the customers voluntarily asking about their satisfaction about the SBI Pasighat’s services. If I get a valid and genuine complaint from any customers who have been charged of extra money or bribe to clear loan, I will surely take action”, added Kumar.

And when Asst. Branch Manager cum Loan Section Officer Gaurav Singh was asked about the loan sanctioning bribe issue, he said that the matter is unknown to him. “Whatever we do, we do it as per the instruction of the Chief Manager”, clarified Singh.
