Save Public Sector Banks
If the banks are privatised, there will be no safety for the deposits and financial services being offered to the common man. The private banks, which offer certain services and benefits to their customers now because of the existence of public sector banks, will scrap them if all PSU banks are privatised.
Loans for farming operations, small businesses, higher education and so on will be stopped, while corporate firms, which usually do not proporly repay loans with interest, will get whopping loans without any surety. Transparency in recruitment of staff will be a thing of the past and reservation in recruitment of staff will go, .
Most of the private sector financial institutions became bankrupt before 1969 and most of the investors lost their deposits in the banks instantly. When the 2008 economic meltdown saw multinational banks biting the dust, the banking sector in India withstood the shock since most of the banks were public sector financial institutions.
