After Maharashtra, banks in Tamil Nadu have reduced their working hours to protect their employees from the second wave of Covid-19. Keeping in view the rising cases in the state, all bank branches in Tamil Nadu are going to function between 10 am to 2 pm.
The new timings will be applicable from Monday, April 26 to April 30. Banks will continuously monitor the situation to decide if the reduced working hours will continue after April 30 or not.
