Banks would provide three hours services to customers during the extended period of countrywide restrictions on movement from April 21 to April 28.

A BB circular issued in this regard on Tuesday said that the banks will have to follow the same procedure as it was followed by them from April 14 in line with a BB circular of April 13.
