In a joint letter dated September 28, 2024, the AIRRBEA affiliated unions outlined their agenda to hold seminars, meetings, and other programs at various RRB headquarters, and even at district levels, to commemorate this milestone. The AIRRBEA leadership has advised that these celebrations should not only highlight the accomplishments of RRBs but also focus on their relevance to rural banking, as the institutions cater to more than 40 crore customers across rural India.
