CBS Post Offices should ensure that all accounts are verified.

Concerned staff should be alerted so that such lapses may be avoided.
All CBS Post Offices, on 31.3.2021, can made transactions latest up to 1700 hours and verify all the transactions simultaneously so that there may be NO Blocking Transactions at 1700 hours. All CBS Post Offices should complete HISCOD latest by 1800 hours.

All the concerned teams who are part of the EOD activity (DO/RO SPOCs) should be available to ensure that EOD activities are completed smoothly.
SOLs should not accept cheques for clearing after 24th of March 2021. Delay in cheque clearing would result in customer complaints. If any cheques are presented, customer must be informed about the consequences of clearing after completion of FY (in case of PPF/SSA/NSC accounts).
