New Delhi, June 16 (UNI) A book highlighting internal shortcomings of public and private sector banks and stark contrast between them in terms of NPA (non-performing assets) levels was released here on Monday.
The book, 'NPA Management in Public & Private Sector Banks in INDIA-Causes and Remedies”, written by Dr. Amarjit Chopra, former President ICAI, was released at a function organised by the Bhartiya Vitta Salahakar Samiti.
