As per section 7, The Banking Regulation Act, 1949 restricts the use of the terms "bank", "banking", "banker" or "banking company" other than by a banking company.
My question is how can a "Blood Bank" or an "Eye Bank" use the word "Bank"? Are they excluded from the purview of the Act?

THESE BANKS ARE JUST NAME OF FACILITIES PROVIDED BY MANY ORGANISATION , WHICH MAY BE A HOSPITAL, CHARITABLE OR RELIGIOUS TRUST, A GROUP OF PEOPLE, UNINCORPORATED AOP OR SOCIETIES ETC,
SO IT DEPENDS WHO'S PROVIDING THE SERVICE. BLOOD BANK ITSELF IN NOT ANY PERSON.
