SBI’s core banking operations hit by connectivity issues

October 13, 2020

State Bank of India (SBI) on Tuesday said all delivery channels (except ATMs and POS machines) will be affected as intermittent connectivity issues have delayed making its Core Banking System (CBS) available to its customers.

SBI has a multi-channel delivery model, which includes digital, mobile, ATM, internet, branches and business correspondent (BC) outlets.

CBS is an IT platform that networks all the operations of a bank, including branches, ATMs, POS, etc., enabling a customer to transact from any branch of the bank or seamlessly transact digitally.

“We regret the inconvenience caused and request you to bear with us. Normal service will resume soon,” SBI said.

As at March-end 2020, SBI had 44.89 crore customers. The bank had a network of 22,141 branches, 58,555 ATMs & ADWMs (Automated Deposit & Withdrawal Machines, CDMs & Recyclers) and 61,102 BC outlets.

Facebook has come under increasing pressure around the world to ensure its social media platform is not abused for political purposes or to spread misinformation. The action against accounts with alleged links to Congress, the party led by the Gandhi family that has dominated Indian politics for much of its post-independence era, marks a bold move by Facebook. The platform has more than 300 million users in India, where it has been a key political campaigning tool in the election - the largest democratic exercise in the world - starting on April 11. While Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his rivals use official Facebook accounts to sen...

The Asian Age June 18, 2018 Investigating agencies are likely to register a fresh case against fugitive diamond merchant Nirav Modi in connection with using multiple passports. Sources said it was surprising that Modi managed to travel to different countries despite his passport being revoked proves that he has been using multiple Indian passports. Sources claimed that intelligence agencies suspect that Modi has at least six such passport, two of which have been active. Of these two passports while one had Modi’s full name, the other one had only his first name with a 40-month UK visa which had been used for traveling to different countries.

Both CBI and ED have attached the passport revocation order in its appeal to the Interpo...
