He called upon the bankers to reconnect to their roots in their respective villages and join any of the developmental activity there. “Each of us should endeavour to ensure positive contribution to the society and try to empower any of the deprived person in our contact. This should start from our homes and expanding to our locality should assume the national form,” he added.
