The benchmark stock indices have opened this morning with further losses after the sharp fall of over 2% witnessed on Monday.Overnight, global stocks witnessed a sharp fall as well affecting sentiments in India this morning.Join us as we follow the top business news through the day.10:20 AM‘Privatise select PSU banks’Former RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan on Monday suggested that the government should privatise select public sector banks, set up a bad bank to deal with NPAs and dilute the Department of Financial Services’ role.The reforms are necessary to ensure growth of banking activity without the periodic boom-bust cycles, Dr. Rajan and former RBI Deputy Governor Viral Acharya said in a paper titled ‘Indian Banks: A Time to Reform?’.“Re-privatisation of select PSBs can then be undertaken, bringing in private investors who have both financial expertise as well as technological expertise; corporate houses must be kept from acquiring significant stakes, given their natural conflicts of interest.
