SAC decision on JK Bank is shocking, Says Rahim Rather

Srinagar, Nov 26: Senior National Conference leader and former Finance Minister Abdul Rahim Rather Monday said that it is quite shocking to know that the J&K Bank, an efficient, viable and profitable institution has been reduced to a public sector undertaking. “I fail to analyze the purpose and reason underlying such a decision.”

“Right from its inception since 1938, the Bank has been a strong partner in the economic and social development of the State. Besides, its role in employment generation, direct as well as indirect, has been quite commendable. The Bank has been rendering services par excellence. This fact has been reckoned and recognized by one and all in the banking industry till date. Every government and political dispensation in the State has been whole heartedly supporting the Bank, its businesses model and the management for improved efficiency. The outcome of such policies has been translated on the ground for everybody to see.”

“Comprehensive and competitive performance of the J&K Bank viz-a-viz other commercial banks and financial institutions would indicate the overall role and scope of J&K Bank in the State economy. A reference to SLBC data for last four to five decades corroborates and reveals the same. It may be seen that J&K Bank has contributed 65% to overall credit growth as against 35% put in by other 50 banks and financial institutions operative in the State. J&K Bank has undoubtedly been a commercial resort for all sections of the population in the State. It has notably done exemplary hand holding of the poor artisans and farmers. Moreover, it has spread the network of its branches in other parts of the country and its performance there also has been appreciated by all the concerned.”

“But unfortunately while deciding to reduce its stature to that of a PSU, all these services and the high role of the Bank have been ignored. This decision, l’m sure, will facilitate undue interference in the day to day working of the Bank which will prove disastrous for this premier institution, as evidenced by the other PSUs of the State.”

“I would urge upon the State Governor to appreciate all these facts and revoke the decision in order to ensure that the J&K Bank continues to function for the betterment of the State smoothly,” Rather said.
