The upper house has passed the Banking Regulation (Amendment) Bill 2020 through a voice vote. This bill would let RBI initiate a scheme for amalgamation of a bank without putting it under a moratorium. Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, in the Upper House, stated that these amendments aim to safeguard the interest of depositors in co-operative banks.

Lok Sabha had also approved the amendment on September 16th. The bill has come after the PMC Bank scam and seeks to strengthen co-operative banks by professionalizing them, and enabling sound banking under the guidance of the RBI. The Act kept aside certain co-operative societies such as the co-operative land mortgage banks and primary agricultural credit societies.
