Marking a major physical and technological expansion, SBI Managing Director Ashwini Kumar Tiwari inaugurated the newly constructed, state-of-the-art building of the Administrative Office, Lucknow (East) in Gomti Nagar.
Speaking as the chief guest, SBI MD Ashwini Kumar Tiwari emphasized that the bank is aggressively pushing boundaries to make digital financial services accessible to the masses.
