The restirction came as the RBI found that the exposure of the co-operative bank to real estate developer HDIL was in too much in excess of what the regulations require and also as the lender hid the NPAs of HDIL. The withdrawal limit for account holders was also kept at Rs 1,000 for six months, which was later raised to Rs 10,000. The regulator also dismissed the board and suspended Thomas. Rakesh and Sarang Wadhawan, the promoters of Housing Development and Infrastructure Ltd (HDIL), along with bank\u2019s former chairman Waryam Singh, were arrested over alleged irregularities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/industry\/banking-finance\/ashok-kapur-family-backs-yes-bank-management-ready-to-dilute-stake\/1732579\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><b>Also read: Ashok Kapur family backs Yes Bank management; ready to dilute stake<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n<p>On Thursday, Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman met the irate account holders of the PMC Bank and assured them that a solution would be reached soon by the RBI.
