Dissolution of the Banks Board Bureau (BBB)

In 2021, a Delhi High Court order questioned the legality of the BBB's appointment of a director in a national insurance company. The court ruled that the BBB lacked the authority to appoint someone less experienced than existing contenders. Following the court order, several directors appointed by the BBB resigned. This created uncertainty and instability in leadership positions.

The government felt a new approach was needed to address the concerns raised about the BBB's functioning and effectiveness. The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC) dissolved the BBB in 2021.
