| RTI will restore JK Bank's Image: BLESS | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, June 18: Right to information act would help Jammu and Kashmir Bank Limited to ensure transparency and regain its reputation as one of the most productive financial institution of the country owned by a State government that not only provides banking facilities to its clients but also helps the entrepreneurs in their growth stated a press note issued by BLESS, Body of Legal Environmental Students and Scholars that includes lawyers, students and scholars from Jammu region.
Advocate Dewaker Sharma, Founder Convener of the group said Jammu and Kashmir Bank is one of the most prestigious institutions of the state that is providing financial services to the people uninterruptedly right from year 1938 with state government having over 59 percent of total shares.
He also said transparency is paramount in any democratic set up thus the demand of the civil society of the Jammu to bring this bank under the Right to information act was genuine and it should have been accepted much earlier without compelling the citizens to move to the state information commission and then fight a legal battle in court.
Unnecessarily some people there in the management of the bank with connivance of the bureaucrats had made it a prestige issue but lastly 'Satyamev Jayte' and all those anti-transparency voices had to eat humble pie. Group members including Advocate Hunar Gupta, Deepak Sharma, Raman Sharma and Karan Parasher student of Law department, Jammu University also congratulated Governor and Chief Secretary for this bold decision. |
