ICICI Bank's laughable statement

ICICI Bank's Board has said, "In line with the highest levels of governance and corporate standards, Ms. Chanda Kochhar has decided to go on leave till the completion of the enquiry as announced on May 30, 2018.
The Board has noted and accepted this."

This is indeed funny. The Board continues to be servile to the bank's MD & CEO. Chanda Kochhar has suddenly discovered that there is something like governance and corporate standards.

The Board has lost an opportunity to prove its undying loyalty to Chanda Kochhar by refusing her 'offer' to go on leave. The Board must have responded by reminding her that the bank cannot survive without her at the helm.
