My Area; RBI Staff Quarters By Shakti


Reserve Bank Staff Quarters is located in Besant Nagar. It is on the M. G. Road. In the neighbourhood, we have landmarks like the Velankanni Church, the Vinayakar temple and the Ratnagiri temple. Our Quarters has a dispensary, temple, school, gym and the services of a plumber and an electrician. The RBI management has recently provided us with mosquito nets and mineral water cans every alternative day. There are six playgrounds with beautiful small gardens that separate them. There is a big lawn at the entrance, with a fountain in the centre. There are 200 apartments, in which only such persons who are employed by RBI can reside with their families. The employees are from all parts of India. The RBI has set up a school on this campus for the benefit of the children of its employees. It is affiliated to the CBSE. The school is housed in the centre of the RBI Quarters, next to the dispensary. A child can finish the secondary school education here. The RBI Quarters School is a 'very sought after' school because its students have always scored very high marks at the Board exams and almost every year it has a centum pass percentage. We also have the Reserve Bank Welfare Association. Every year we have competitions and winners get fabulous prizes.
