IBPS CWE PO/MT V (2015-16)

Shooting some banking awareness questions, are you ready puys ?

I'm visiting this thread occasionally since last 2 days. After going through many questions related to Bank and GK in this Thread. I was compelled to ask this Question.

Why discuss something which is not much important right now?  AFAIK, We will not be asked GK and Bank and Computer questions.
