Our Department is a big big department with rich History. Work
is on increasing scale. Salary is not bad. Our Staff and Network are our
strengths. Yes, we lost monoploy and facing competition from private players.
Much depends on effective policy formulation by Govt. Its a public service Dept
not a commercial company so we are running under loss. For e.g Our Savings bank
funds belongs to finance ministry not to us. Like this, we operate with lot of
constraints. Don’t judge without
knowledge. I hope you would have got aware of this Prestigious Institution.
