During the meeting, the Collector conducted an intensive review of the deposit-credit ratio until June 2026, the Annual Credit Plan, and bank-wise advance achievements.

Information was sought on efforts to connect rural youth with self-employment and skill development through RSETI, and the work in this direction was reviewed.

Directives for Achieving Loan Targets

Emphasizing the timely achievement of targets set for the financial year 2026-27, Collector Rajni Singh stated clearly that it is the primary responsibility of bank and departmental officials to ensure that the benefits of government schemes reach eligible beneficiaries with speed. She directed that there should be no unnecessary delay in the disposal of loan cases. If any technical or procedural obstacles arise at the bank level, the concerned departmental officer must immediately establish contact with the bank coordinators to ensure a swift resolution.

The Collector encouraged all officials to work with mutual coordination so that more and more eligible citizens can benefit from government schemes. She also instructed continuous monitoring of the target-wise and time-bound progress of schemes to maintain consistency in development work.
