PRANAB TO INAUGURATE SBIS 14TH BRANCH IN JANGIPUR ON NOVEMBER 11


State Bank of India is all set to open yet another branch in Jangipur, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee's parliamentary constituency.

A senior SBI official said the finance minister is expected to inaugurate the branch on November 11, two days after the bank announces its second quarter and half yearly results.

The branch will be located at Sammati Nagar, a rural business centre. It will be SBI's 14th branch in Jangipur, which has witnessed a flurry of activities after Mukherjee took over the finance ministry's baton in late 2008.

In the last couple of years, banks have collectively opened as many as 22 branches in this district sub-division but most of these are in Jangipur town where the need is little, leaving the rural centres still grossly under-banked. Overall, banks have merely 73 branches for a population of 18 lakh in Jangipur, an economy driven by wages from bidi making.

SBI also plans to launch 11 mobile banking vans for West Bengal on November 11 to reach out to villages where population is below 2,000, an SBI official said.
