Nationalization Stopped Demoralization Of Indian Nation Poem by Mailrangam Visvanathan Venkataraman

Especially after Banking-nationalization
Security prevailed in every nationalized organization
The purpose was to widely serve the Nation
Of course, remarkable was Banks’ contribution

There was widespread branch-expansion
Many were given very quick promotion
Banking sector became a very big ocean
Contributing to country’s wealth a big portion

Side by side functioned Union and Association
Membership in them offered the best protection
Recruitments were made with great liberalization
Employees’ strength grew beyond imagination

Certain Government’s goals enjoyed not realization
Agricultural sector suffered from financial depression
Became profit-oriented this Banking profession
To the country’s back-bone, Banks offered not concession

After a careful and detailed observation
For the country’s prosperity-preservation
The Government made a firm declaration
That Banks must serve country’s poor section

Took place major loans’ distribution
Banks faced trial and tribulation
In loan-interest came a drastic reduction
Unprecedented was such a vital decision

Especially after the emergency declaration
The Nation submerged into a chaotic confusion
After Indira Gandhi’s apologetic confession
As the P M, Indians favored her induction

Character, capacity and capital suffered elimination
Capacity became the number one condition
For the first time was broken the Banking tradition
Loans were given by Banks with trepidation

Because of unhealthy political intervention
Banking sector was given undue tension
Government could not stop poverty’s continuation
Non-repayment of loans gave Banks botheration

Though there was deposits’ multiplication
Giving loans boldly gave serious complication
Interest is nothing but mere paper calculation
Banks were threatened by NPA’s accumulation

INDIAN BANK is one such Institution
Which suffered massive funds’ dilution
All working for her required in Banking-tuition
As she struggled requiring capital-infusion

Through dedication, devotion and perspiration
All must make a very honest preparation
To rescue her from a highly bleeding position
Must soon take place this wise transition

Through new and novel schemes’ introduction
There must take place sophisticated innovation
Colossal courage is required for the occasion
What is needed is every one’s participation

Surely will never suffice mere aspiration
There must be concrete and perfect action
All must work to their conscience’ satisfaction
There must be a drive towards perfection

We can boldly make a very solid prediction
That this Institution will continue to function
Her profits will shoot up without limitation
She is pure gold and not at all imitation

Soon she will receive massive appreciation
She has a very strong cum solid foundation
Ninety years’ of very powerful construction
Will never suffer just like that destruction

This phase is a temporary distraction
The best services will bring attraction
Give to the customers the best attention
That is the only way for loss-prevention

Hard-work is the only possible solution
That will clear mind of ugly pollution
Indian Bank will never suffer dissolution
Such a thinking is only an illusion

Always be on guard against individual domination
At each level make a thorough investigation
Sanction a loan after a serious group discussion
That offers, against losses, the best cushion

Avoid following ultra modern fashion
Learn to dwell in a hut as well as mansion
In hard-work lies definitely every salvation
Let on Indian Bank God bestow His benediction.
