The Chairman said that plans for large scale increase in branch network, especially in un-banked and under-banked areas in J&K State and at all important commercial centers of the country had already been drawn. “J&K Bank has devised an economically inclusive plan wherein by March 2015 the Bank has volunteered to provide banking facilities to 3000 under/un-banked areas across the state,” he said.
The chairman stated that the policies of the Bank would be aimed at socio economic development of the State by active participation in financing employment generation and poverty alleviation programmes of the State Government particularly Sher-i-Kashmir Employment and Welfare Programme for Youth (SKEWPY) promoted by the State Government. As a hand holding measure and to achieve the objective of alternate employment generation the Bank has constituted a task force for monitoring implementation of this scheme.
