IT IS THE MEN BEHIND THE SHOW

IT IS THE MEN BEHIND THE SHOW THAT MATTERS

We always say that the pension paying Banks play a vital role in the well being of the pensioners. It is true. By pension paying Banks, we mean, the persons involved in dealing with the grievances of the pensioners and not the Bank.

It is the attitude of the staff working in any organization that brings name and fame to it.

Most of the times we appreciate the Bank as a whole, but fail to compliment the individual who was helpful in that issue.

In this context, we are proud to mention here the name of the individual officer MR.RAM GOPAL PAL, the SENIOR MANAGER, of Central Bank of India, Kovilpatti, Tirunelveli District, Tamilnadu who was very much helpful in attending the grievances of the pensioners attached to Central Bank of India, Kovilpatti.

The Exwel Trust on behalf of the Defence Pensioners is proud to publish his photo and wish him a healthy and happy life.
