Post Bank of India: a missed opportunity for UPA-II

Armed with all necessary approvals from various stakeholders, including the Planning Commission and the Ministry of Finance, the DoP had submitted its application with the Public Investment Board to be put before the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) for its approval in January this year.
