Various social welfare schemes being executed through banksVAIBHAV PARWATAurangabad:Plethora of welfare schemes are being implemented through the nationalised banks in the district. However, due to several problems and issues involved in implementation of the governmental welfare schemes and programmes, the execution has remained low in the district.Various other schemes such as Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY), Atal Pension Yojana, Surakhsa Bima Yojana and others have been launched for financial inclusion and social security. However these schemes fail in successful implementation and reaching to beneficiaries. The scenario has remained low in the State. However, the implementation of schemes is far below in the backward region of Marathwada. The region still faces large number of farmers suicide, lack of quality education, unutilised demographic dividend and malnourishment despite the presence of development schemes.Various welfare schemes and programmes of the government which totally rely on banks for implementation are PMJDY, Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (PMJJBY), Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (PMSBY), Atal Pension Yojana (APY), Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana, Stand Up India Scheme, Kisan Credit Card, PM SVANidhi Yojana and others.
