Are ATMs safe enough

It was around 9:30 in the night yesterday and and me on the way to Citibank ATM in BTM layout was taken by surprise with the crowd at ATM. After waiting for few minutes, I realized that the crowd was watching the cricket match(India-SA) in the TV fixed there.

Will the bank take responsibility for any mishaps?. What made them to have a TV at ATM and showing the programs which catches more attention from the public. This is really absurd.

Is fixing TVs at the ATM centres really a necessary one?. Already Bangalore facing a lot of robbery cases and this is really a threat for the people withdrawing cash there. Bank may claim that they do provide a security person there. Is he a movie-hero?.

Its really a very bad idea to have TV and telecasting a match or movie in a places like ATM.
