The National Commission for Protection of Child Rights (NCPCR) has issued summons to a senior official at ICICI Bank as four children stare at the possibility of losing their home over repayment of a loan taken by their parents, both of whom died last year during the second wave of the pandemic.
“The Commission requires you to physically appear before the Commission in this matter to furnish an action taken report on 20.04.2022, and to explain the reasons for not furnishing the requisite information sought by the Commission,” Registrar NCPCR, Anu Chaudhary, wrote in a letter addressed to Non-Executive (part-time) Chairperson, ICICI Bank. The summons was issued on March 29.
This followed the bank’s failure to respond to an earlier letter from the NCPCR seeking details on the matter.
