If there is too much rush of depositors, the bank branches will remain open on weekends as well," he had added.On March 5, the RBI had imposed a moratorium on Yes Bank, restricting withdrawals to Rs 50,000 per depositor till April 3 in view of its poor financial health due to bad loans."Only one-third of our customers have withdrawn Rs 50,000 during the moratorium.
