Hey the Nationalization is an act of taking an industry or assets into the public ownership of a national government.


The Oriental Bank Of Commerce was nationalised on 15 April 1980.

At that time OBC ranked 19th among the 20 nationalised banks.[citation needed]

In 1997, OBC acquired two banks: Bari Doab Bank and Punjab Cooperative Bank.[

The acquisition of these two banks brought with it no additional branches.
