The last three years have been pretty good for bank robbers - at least according to statistics revealed by the Minister of State for Finance, Santosh Kumar Gangwar, in the parliament this week. According to Gangwar's written reply, banks in India have lost around Rs. 180 crore in the past three years to thefts. The money was stolen in 2,632 incidents of theft, robbery, dacoity, and burglary at 51 banks during the same period (April 2014-March 2017). The answer came in response to a question regarding negligence shown by banks in complying with security norms for protecting bank lockers. The finance ministry had been asked "whether banks are showing negligence in complying with rules/norms for appointing security guards in banks and the experts have indicated that the various culprits are taking advantage of security lapses in committing theft from bank lockers". While the ministry didn't clarify if the government is carrying out any assessment to check bank negligence, it's answer stated that the "Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has informed that banks have been advised to review and strengthen the security arrangement in their branches and ATMs from time to time". The answer further clarified that thefts exclusively from lockers are not reported to the RBI. However, the ministry did spell out the number of such thefts reported by banks. A total of 51 banks of around 100 commercial banks or nearly 50 percent of all banks in the country have reported thefts and burglaries in the last three years - which is in itself a shocking number.
