#Mandi- Bank unions oppose KV Kamath as the loan restructuring committee head
The All India Bank Employees’ Association (AIBEA) has opposed the decision to appoint KV Kamath as the head of the Expert Committee on COVID-19-related loan restructuring.
The association has requested the Reserve Bank of India to review it's decision citing Kamath’s alleged role in the ICICI Bank- Videocon Group loan controversy. KV Kamath was among the members of the committee that approved the Videocon loan.
“We strongly feel that at this stage, making such a person as Chairman of the Expert Committee is avoidable and needs to be reviewed,” the union urged the Reserve Bank of India.
