Referring to the delay in banks taking benefits of the Union Government schemes to beneficiaries, Deputy Commissioner of Dharwad Nitesh Patil has said that the district administration has taken serious note of the issue of non-cooperation from banks, particularly private ones, in this connection.

Speaking at a tri-monthly virtual meeting of the District Level Review Committee from Dharwad, Mr. Patil asked the Lead Bank officials to come up with a ranking system for banks in the district based on facilities extended and applications processed by them.

He said that several private banks are hesitant in extending benefits of government programmes and schemes. “Bankers are not cooperating in timely implementation of housing schemes, including PMAY (Prime Minister’s Awas Yojna). As a result, eligible beneficiaries are facing hardships,” he said.
