The government has also elevated SBI Deputy Managing Director Challa Sreenivasulu Setty to the post of MD of the bank for a period of three years.

 
His term is extendable for another two years.
 
The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet has approved the proposal of the Department of the Financial Services for the appointment of Setty.
