<h1>Banks told to report on RBI trilingual circular, as petition pushes Bengali use in all state branches</h1> The Calcutta High Court directed all banks operating in West Bengal to file compliance reports on adherence to a Reserve Bank of India circular requiring trilingual usage (English, Hindi, and the relevant regional language) for customer-facing documents and signage. The petition, filed by an NGO, seeks enforcement of the mandate to use Bengali in all branches in the state. A division bench led by the Acting Chief Justice scheduled the matter for further hearing in the first week of December and ordered non-compliant banks to submit reports meanwhile. At least one major public sector bank has confirmed its intention to fully implement the trilingual requirements.
