   The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) does not have a direct conflict or active
   legal case against Microsoft Word or Microsoft terminals.
   
<https://supremetoday.ai/search/microsoft-app-is-banned-in-india#:~:text=While%20India%20has%20banned,ban%20on%20Microsoft%20applications.>
   No official ban or systemic litigation exists between these two entities.

   If you are trying to understand how Microsoft Word and terminal
   applications interact with RBI guidelines or the RBI Grade B exam portal,
   the core relationship is defined by cybersecurity compliance and
   application formatting.
   ------------------------------
   1. Cyber Security & Terminal Hardening Guidelines
   The RBI issues strict cyber risk guidelines through its Cyber Security
   Framework for banks. Under these IT security mandates: [2]
   
      - Terminal Hardening: Banking computer terminals must be strictly
      hardened to restrict extraneous software.
      - Macros and Scripts: Microsoft Word macros (.docm or Visual Basic for
      Applications) are frequently disabled or blocked on banking terminals
      because they are a primary vector for malware and ransomware.
      - Third-Party Software: Applications like Microsoft Word cannot connect
      directly to secure central banking terminals or Core Banking Solutions
      (CBS) without going through strict, isolated data validation pipelines.
      [2, 3]
   
   ------------------------------
   2. Microsoft Word Use for RBI Grade B Application
   When submitting an online application for the RBI Grade B recruitment panel
   on the official RBI Opportunities Portal, Microsoft Word text formatting
   should be handled carefully: [4]
   
      - Handwritten Declaration: You cannot use Microsoft Word to type out a
      standard handwritten declaration. It must be physically written by your 
own
      hand on a blank piece of paper using a black ink pen and scanned. [5]
      - Visually Impaired Candidates Exception: Visually impaired candidates
      who cannot write are allowed to use software like Microsoft Word to type
      the declaration text. They must print it, place their left thumb 
impression
      underneath the text, and upload that scanned document. [5, 6]
      - Text Copy-Pasting: If you draft your educational history or job
      details in Microsoft Word to save them beforehand, paste them into the
      online application form as plain text to prevent hidden Word formatting
      characters from breaking the system database fields.
   
   ------------------------------
   3. Official Application Processing Boundaries
   
      - Isolated Portals: The RBI Grade B application runs strictly on an IBPS
      integrated server portal deployed for the RBI.
      - No Software Extensions: External office software, browser tools, or
      local terminal processing tools cannot modify, track, or submit data on
      behalf of your candidate profile. [6, 7]
   
   ------------------------------
   Are you experiencing a specific error code on your terminal while uploading
   a document, or are you trying to format text for the RBI Grade B Phase II
   descriptive English exam using a keyboard?
