The Deputy Commissioner directed all bankers to treat the implementation of social security schemes as a mission and ensure that the benefits of these schemes reach every eligible citizen of the district.

The non-priority sector recorded a credit outlay of ₹507.27 crore. Reviewing sector-wise performance, the Deputy Commissioner directed bankers to achieve the prescribed targets under priority sectors, particularly education, housing and social infrastructure.

He instructed banks to work in close coordination with line departments for effective implementation of government schemes and improved service delivery.
