The Finance Minister Arun Jaitley will meet chief executives of public sector banks (PSBs) on March 5 for a quarterly review meeting.
Besides customary issues like credit off take in the economy, the review meeting is also expected to look into achievements under priority sector lending and progress made under Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana.
The periodic review meeting will also focus on taking forward the intention of the department of financial services (DFS) to improve the performance of the PSBs.
Recent steps like additional capital infusion of ₹ 6,990 crore in PSBs on the basis of performance measured by return on assets/equity may also be discussed.
