Article Neutrality

This article sounds like it was written by someone trying to promote the bank. While the facts may be correct, there are many opinions interjected into the article. For example:

1) The whole section of “110 Years of Banking” - The title itself is a promotion and the section just lists famous people that attended the celebration. Perhaps instead there should be a separate section for "Notable Affiliates"

2) "The indigenous banking was largely in the hands of a few rich private individuals and something had to be done to provide relief to the common man from the clutches of the money lenders who held full sway". This is opinionated and if true can be stated more neutraly.

3) "They rightly defined Swadeshism as institution-building to aid economic activity through co-operation of all, shorn of distinction of caste and creed". This is an opinion

4) "Started as a common man's bank, it changed with the times to meet the aspirations of the people but never swerved from its motto- Sarve Janah Sukhino Bhavantu meaning Prosperity for All. It endeavoured and succeeded in striking a right balance between traditional values and innovative approach, personalised service and professional outlook and commercial considerations and public concern" This is an opinion and clearly an attempt to self promote — Preceding unsigned comment added by Osyed8750 (talk • contribs) 19:44, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Agreed. It is very promotional. Plus, the only references are to the bank's publications. Dhtwiki (talk) 22:29, 14 April 2017 (UTC)

Disputing section - "Products and services"

This section contains an exhaustive list of services provided by the bank and cannot be an encyclopedic content. This section acts as a promotion for the bank. Srihari Thalla (talk) 17:45, 13 June 2017 (UTC)

It does give, just by listing the names, some idea of services and the marketing of those services. But it also is just a list, without explanation or reference. It could be eliminated. Dhtwiki (talk) 10:09, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Thanks for updating the template for sources citations! I actually came to know about the third-party sources and additional citations requirement templates after I updated with no citations template. I hope to find some sources! Srihari Thalla (talk) 15:36, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

Hey, @Dhtwiki:! The moved reply was a reply to the previous section. Anyway, it's fine! Srihari Thalla (talk) 15:43, 12 July 2017 (UTC)

My apologies. I thought it belonged to the discussion that you started. Dhtwiki (talk) 17:19, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
