SBI Panjim (former Banco Nacional Ultramarino) another thing I learnt today.. First time I heard about this bank (BNU) was in 1980s When I read that people from Goa can claim back the gold deposited with then Banco Nacional Ultramarino. that's about 20+ years after they left Goa. I am sure upto 50% of the Gold is still lying with the BNU. As many may have lost the papers/documents or receipts as proof. Don't know if the first Goa Govt. did anything about it or not.
