Will the @RBI and @FinMinIndia review the decision of giving banking license in India to Bank of China 🇨🇳? Yes or No? @PMOIndia @narendramodi

TRUTH & Verification: A viral social media post, showing a tweet from news agency ANI, claims that the RBI has issued a license to Bank of China to open its first branch in India now despite ‘Boycott China’ calls. The message shred in social media is not true.

As per chinabankingnews news dated 6^th June 2020, The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) an­nounced that it would allow BOC to offer regular bank­ing services in India after issuing the Chinese state-owned lender with a domestic license, accord­ing to a report from The Eco­nomic Times from 4 July 2018.

This news is old and has nothing to do with the current border tension with India and China.

VERDICT:  True, but old news
