"At this stage, the catalysts for economic revival, the catalysts who have the pulse of every one of their customers, are banks," the finance minister said.
She was speaking after launching PSB Alliance-Doorstep Banking Services. "Banks need to introspect on their core businesses," she added.
Sitharaman said,"The rapid pace with which India has adopted Jan Dhan, Aadhar and mobile can be a lesson to other countries."
Sitharaman also added that banks must reach out to those areas where banking has not reached yet. She said all bank staffers should know the details of government schemes which are to be implemented through the lenders.
The services shall be rendered by the Doorstep Banking Agents deployed by the selected Service Providers at 100 centres across the country.
The services can be availed by customers of Public Sector Banks at nominal charges. The services shall benefit all customers, particularly Senior Citizens and Divyangs who would find it at ease to avail these services. #casansaar (Source - PTI, ANI, LiveMint)
