The Reserve Bank of India has granted permission for the functioning of the India Post Payment Bank and it is expected that the same will start functioning before 31 March 2017 as a report in the press indicates.
The RBI was not granting sanction for the Department of Posts to start the payment bank for a long time. Airtel and Paytm was granted permission earlier. It is informed that the facility will be rolled out in 650 using the network facility of 1.54 lakh Post Offices.
The government has appointed A.P.Singh of Indian Postal Service as the interim MD and CEO of IPPB. Is it necessary to have a separate entity for IPPB, when the Department of Posts is there? Is it trying to take away the banking business from the DoP?

Shri Pranab Mukherjee, President of India, in his Republic Day address, has stated that ” A healthy democracy calls for conformity to the values of tolerance, patience and respect for others.”
Exactly true. But unfortunately, those in power and at the helm of affairs either forget the advice or consciously act against the same. Intolerance and impatience has been the cause for the downfall of many.
