If you are like your cigarette or gutkha, the Rajkot People's Co-operative Bank has no job for you. The bank does not hire anyone who smokes or chews tobacco.
And, customers with these habits have to pay higher interest if availing a loan.
"It is my belief that a person not addicted to smoking or chewing pan, gutkha or tobacco performs his/her duties in a far more better way than those who are addicted," says Shamjibhai Khunt, chairman.
Adding: "I hate bad habits; hence, I believe it is my priority to ensure my staffers are not addicted. They are allowed to have only tea in the bank. If anyone smokes or chews tobacco, they are not allowed to work in my bank. It is strictly prohibited."
