Andhra Bank has decided to keep its ATMs in Tamil Nadu closed during nights till normalcy returns, said a senior official of the bank.
Following protests over the police encounter near Tirupati, Andhra Pradesh, in which 20 woodcutters from Tamil Nadu were shot dead by the police on Tuesday, protests swelled across Tamil Nadu condemning the brutal incident.
Police protection has been given to all branches, but we do not want to take a chance and hence decided to close all our ATMs in Tamil Nadu after office hours, said the official.
