NEW DELHI – Public sector banks are in the process of recruiting 48,570 employees in 2025-26 (Apr-Mar), minister of state for finances Pankaj Chaudhary said in a written reponse to a Rajya Sabha question on Tuesday. During the last 5 years, banks have recruited 148,687 employees, he said.
As of Mar. 31, around 96% staff are in position against the requirement of state-owned banks, he said. "The small proportion of gap is attributable to attrition on account of superannuation and other usual factors including unplanned exits," he told the Upper House. End
