Rajanna Sircilla, Oct.22 : District Collector and Chairperson of the District Consultative Committee and District Level Review Committee (DCC & DLRC), Garima Agrawal, directed all banking institutions in the district to strictly achieve their assigned credit targets for public welfare schemes. Presiding over a high-level review meeting at the Integrated District Offices Complex auditorium on Thursday, she emphasized that commercial and rural banks must prioritize the timely disbursement of loans across key sectors including agriculture, housing, education, and women’s self-help groups (SHGs).
Reviewing the district’s performance in implementing central and state government self-employment initiatives such as PMEGP, PMFME, and PM Vishwakarma, Collector Agrawal urged bankers to ensure 100 percent target fulfillment. She specifically instructed financial institutions to expand home construction loans and streamline credit linkages for trainees completing programs through the Rural Self Employment Training Institute (RSETI), noting that RSETI has successfully trained 314 candidates across 13 vocational disciplines.
Furthermore, the Collector called for greater coordination between district administrative officers and bank managers to boost awareness regarding central insurance schemes like Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY) and Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY). District LDM Rajeev Kumar, RBI LDO Chetan M. Gorekhar, NABARD DDM Dileep Chandra, and various departmental officers attended the review session.
