As part of its initiatives to rejuvenate the SHGs in the State, the NABARD has decided to conduct 4,000 village-level programme on a mission mode through branches of commercial banks, RRBs and cooperative banks from March 1 to 15.
Besides the branch officials and members of the SHGs, representatives of NGOs and OlM will participate in the programme.
The programmes would be in the form of credit camps or linkage meets where activities like sanction, release, recovery campaign, etc will be held. The programmes will also sensitize the SHG members about linkage, operation of loan accounts (Term loan and CC), prompt payment concept for NRlM subvention and other available supports to SHGs.
At the last SlBC meeting held on February 22 to ensure participation of all banks, OlM and other stakeholders, the NABARD also decided to extend financial support for conducting such programmes.
