"The way I think about it right now, I think at least in the June policy meeting, the RBI will not make any change in the interest rates and the repo rate. Instead, it will try to provide liquidity support in the economy by keeping liquidity flush in the banking sector, which is the case right now," Bhandari told ANI.
