<h1>Empanelment reversal: private banks reinstated to handle state business after assurances on priority lending and credit ratios.</h1> The state government rescinded a prior order removing three private banks from the empanelled list due to poor performance in handling state schemes and banking parameters, after the banks submitted written assurances to improve priority sector lending and the credit-to-deposit ratio; the rescission restores their eligibility to handle business and deposits of state government organisations.
