The Madhya Pradesh Bank Officers Association (MPBOA) has published a list of defaulters of various nationalised banks, which includes names of large business houses of Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh.
Because of these big defaulters the non-performing assets had increased to Rs 2,117.17 crore and Rs 142.60 crore in Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh, respectively.
The list included only those names from whom banks have to realise over Rs 1 crore, said Alok Khare, president of the All-India Bank Officers Associa-tion, here yesterday.
