He assured that the loan disbursement powers are given to the branch managers concerned only and asked the eligible farmers to approach the bank for loans.

He said that the deposits in the bank were reduced to Rs 568.99 crore (reduced by Rs 23.03 crore). He said that rumours over gossip on the proposed FRDI Bill affected the bank as the customers are not coming forward to deposit money in the bank.
