Do you have to work in banks every day? If yes, then this news is only for you. And if you go occasionally, then this news becomes even more important. In today’s time, banks are not only used for withdrawing and depositing money, but are also used for many other things.
The opening and closing times of each bank may vary and due to this, people sometimes have to face problems. In such a situation, the Madhya Pradesh government has taken an important step to improve banking services. Now the opening and closing times of all nationalized banks of Madhya Pradesh will be the same.
This change will be effective from January 1, 2025. From this date, all banks will open at 10 am and close at 4 pm. This decision has been approved in the meeting of the State Level Bankers Committee (SLBC) and the committee believes that this step will help in streamlining banking services.
Why is this change necessary?
Customers face confusion and inconvenience due to different timings of different banks. While some banks open at 10 am, others open at 10:30 or 11 am. Due to this disparity, customers who have to go from one bank to another face more difficulties.
Better convenience for customers…
Customers can now visit any nationalized bank from 10 am to 4 pm without making a plan as per the schedules of different banks.
No waiting…
Having a consistent schedule will help reduce chaos. This will make it easier to manage the crowd and customers won’t have to wait as long.
Better coordination between banks:
With all banks working at the same time, there will be better coordination in services like inter-bank transactions and customer referrals. Employees will also benefit from this as it will help in better planning of office shifts and this will increase their productivity.
This move by Madhya Pradesh could be replicated in other states of India. The confusion and frustration caused by different opening hours of banks across the country could inspire other regions to adopt similar changes.
