Inaugurating the branch, Terang said it is a positive sign that more banks are coming to Diphu town and opening branches. With more banks, there will be a competitive spirit in financial activities.
Regional head from the regional office in Jorhat, Bhaskar Mondal, said, “We are very proud that a second branch office has come up here in Diphu. The first was at Tumpreng, West Karbi Anglong.
