A 104-year-old man inaugurated a special service centre of the South Indian Bank (SIB) for senior citizens here Wednesday.
Meleth Ouseph, who hails from the cultural capital of the state, Thrissur, which is also the headquarters of the bank, was the chief guest by virtue of being the oldest customer of the bank.

Bank's MD and CEO V.A. Joseph said this new facility is being opened for the convenience of senior citizens and is being handled by experienced staff.
