Nupur Alankar of Swaragini fame faces major financial crisis after bank accounts get frozen

The condition of the Indian economy is a matter of concern for one and all. Of late, we have been hearing about the Punjab and Maharashtra Co-operative Bank scam. It is under the scanner of the Economic Offences Wing. As of now, the savings of every account holder is frozen. This crisis has hit the public and celebs as well. Swaragini actress Nupur Alankar is also a victim of the same and has spoken up about her financial crisis. The lady said she had to sell off jewellery to survive and borrow money from friends. She told The Times Of India, "I am facing a major financial crisis. I had accounts in other banks, too, which I transferred to this bank a few years ago. Little did I know that my family members mother, sister, husband, sister-in-law and father-in-law and my life savings will be frozen like this. The Reserve Bank of India first curbed the withdrawal limit for account holders to `1,000 and later increased it to `10,000 and then `25,000 per person. But that amount can be withdrawn only once in six months. How am I expected to survive without money? Should I mortgage my house now? Why is there a cap on my own hard-earned money? I have been diligently paying income tax, so why am I suffering today? A circular was recently released that we can withdraw `50,000 to one lakh in case of children's education or medical emergency. A family member was critical, but we couldn't afford to hospitalise her. We have now hired a home nurse to tend to her. Besides, none of our credit or debit cards are working."

She further told the paper, "With no money at home and all our accounts frozen, I was left with no option, but to sell off my jewellery. I had to, in fact, borrow `3,000 from a fellow actor. Another one transferred `500 for my commute. So far, I have borrowed `50,000 from friends. There is no clarity when the problem will be resolved and we are scared that we will lose our money. The worst part is, I am not even eligible for a loan anymore. The moment I say that my accounts were in PMC Bank, even the telecallers hang up." We hope she and others come out of this predicament soon!
