PNB fraud: The finance ministry (finmin) on Tuesday set a 15-day deadline for public sector banks to take pre-emptive action against operational and technical risks, following nearly Rs 13,000 crore fraud at the Punjab National Bank (PNB), the country's second-biggest public lender.
"State-run banks have 15 days to take pre-emptive action and identify gaps/weaknesses to gear up for rising operational and technical risks," said Rajeev Kumar, secretary in the department of financial services in a tweet.
Besides fixing "clear accountability" of senior officials, the banks must also learn from best practices and pinpoint strategies including technical solutions, Kumar added.

The Central Bureau of Investigation on Monday said it questioned PNB Executive Director KV Brahmaji Rao, two General Managers and a retired official in connection with its probe into the multi-crore fraud.
The Income Tax Department also said it had attached 66 more bank accounts related to accused Choksi.
