2. Further, although two new
districts “East Kamrup” and “South Kamrup” have been published in the
Gazette Notification dated February 26, 2016, these two districts are still
non-functional as per the communication received from the Government of
Assam. Lead bank responsibility will hence be assigned separately for these
districts.
3. The District Working Codes of
the new districts have been allotted for the purpose of BSR reporting by
banks.
4. There is no change in the
lead bank responsibilities of the other districts in the State of Assam.
Yours faithfully
(Ajay Kumar Misra)
Chief General Manager
