Former RBI Director and professor of Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore, Charan Singh, has been appointed as the non-executive chairman of Punjab & Sind Bank.

Former managing director of TPG Private Equity, Anjali Bansal, has been appointed as the new Chairperson of Dena Bank.

Former corporate affairs secretary, Tapan Ray, will take charge as the new Chairperson of Central Bank of India.
