Sir,
I am interested to open my PPF account in State Bank of India. I have all valid documents like PAN cards and Passport which proofs that i am indian citizen and i have saving accounts in SBI varanasi branch also.
I am working in mumbai. when i went to SBI Andheri( Marol )branch SBI Officer told me to give local address proof ,I have submitted my rent agreement which is noterised by a lawyer but not registered. This NOTERISED rent-agreement is valid in all gov. organisations to show as addressproof.
When i told him the same they told me to go back varanasi and open PPF account from there. But currently i am not able to go varanasi at moment.
Please tell me why that type of silly rule is applicable in such a big public organisation.If i am indian citizen then why any permanent address is not sufficient. I am facing problem for that rule. Is this valid rule.
Please Suggest....
Thanks
Vivek
