“The vigilance people act swiftly on complaint of demand of bribe by bank employees... Nobody will be spared”, he said. “There is a Vigilance Wing which is dynamic... We have zero-tolerance on the issue of corruption... The bribe-seekers will have to face consequences and stern punitive action”, Chaudhuri said. He was responding to a query from reporters on the issue of corruption raised by chief minister Nitish Kumar at the State Level Bankers' Committee (SLBC) meet here earlier in the day.
