District Administration and Banks to Coordinate Implementation

The campaign will be conducted under the overall guidance of the District Collector. The Lead District Manager will coordinate with commercial banks, Regional Rural Banks, cooperative banks and India Post Payments Bank to ensure the organisation of camps.

The District Level Consultative Committee will determine the dates and venues of the camps. Efforts will also be made to involve elected panchayat representatives, panchayat secretaries, self-help groups, banking correspondents, customer service centres and officials and employees of the concerned departments.

The campaign is expected to expand access to banking services and social security schemes for eligible citizens in both rural and urban areas. By addressing gaps in account access, documentation, insurance and pension enrolment, the initiative aims to strengthen financial security, particularly among economically weaker households and people who remain outside the formal banking system.
