Highlighted Comments
This is a very important problem which needs addressing. There are so many people suffering when this money would have helped them.
This is a long pending issue and Govt/s have no will to initiate any action.
Many NRI cannot get their money from Indian banks which do not help and don't even answer emails from heirs, especially during covid many died.
Many go with a concept that only a paltry sum was deposited & it is not worth taking all the troubles of claiming it.
