JAMMU, Mar 13: A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on the promotion and financing of 2000 Joint Liability Groups (JLGs) was today signed and exchanged between NABARD, J&K Regional Office, Jammu, and J&K Grameen Bank.

He reaffirmed the Bank's commitment to playing a significant role in socio-economic development and ensuring that initiatives like social security schemes, SHG and JLG credit linkages reach even the remotest areas.
Under this MoU, J&K Grameen Bank will form and finance 2000 JLGs across UT of J&K and UT of Ladakh. NABARD will provide a promotional grant support of ?4000 per JLG to J&K Grameen Bank, further strengthening financial empowerment in the region. |
