Newly-constituted Banks Board Bureau (BBB), headed by former CAG Vinod Rai, will meet heads of public sector banks tomorrow to discuss various issues including ways to rein in bad loans.
"We have called meeting of managing directors of 13-15 public sector banks tomorrow to discuss various issues," Rai said here.
The Bureau will be having meeting with each one of them separately, he said.
Issues like bad loans, vacancy at top level, kick-starting of lending are among various issues expected to be discussed.
There are 22 state-owned banks in the country, including SBI, IDBI Bank and Bharatiya Mahila Bank.

Expert members are ICICI Bank's former joint MD H N Sinor, Bank of Baroda's former CMD Anil K Khandelwal and rating agency Crisil's ex-chief Rupa Kudwa.
