Mr Ananthakrishna is a dedicated banker and he deserves to be Congratulated for his election as a part time Non Executive Director of the bank.More than him the bank is the beneficiary in getting such persons on the Board.He had risen to the Chairman of Karnataka Bank from ranks and he earned the elevation out of his hard work,commitment and loyalty to the bank.He was with the bank when it was facing merger,if not liqiudation completely.He had toiled for the bank and given his best ignoring all persoanl comforts and luxuries for its growth and he ensured that the bank is one of the top performers among Private sector Banks.He is a banker worth emulating by the present Generation of bankers and banking officials.The present banking system which is becoming a borrower of funds than the deposit mobilser and then lender needs to learn a lot of banking from Mr Anantha Krishna who rightly said one has to earn the salary and not to take the salary.The depositing public need to be with banks.
