The Union Bank Social Foundation Trust has come up with a scheme to provide financial assistant to girl students from Classes-VI to XII for completing their education.
In this context, the Union Bank of India is providing financial aids to 6,150 meritorious girl children through its 1,230 rural branches on pan-India basis. For Odisha, the bank has sanctioned Rs 7.8 lakh to 195 girl children with provision of Rs 4,000, each, through its 39 rural branches. On the Independence Day on Friday, bank’s Regional head of Bhubaneswar Region VK Srivastava visited Satyabadi-Sakhigopal branch of the bank in Puri and felicitated five girl students with the amounts under the scheme.
Similarly, the bank’s AGMs AK Parichha and AK Pattnaik visited Mahura and Balichandrapur villages, respectively, to present the monetary aids to girl children during an Independence Day programme at the Balichandrapur High school.
