Rural Banking Challenges in India

Dr Mahalaxmi Krishnan

Abstract :

With only 50,000 of the 600,000 villages having access to finance, there is an imperative need to accelerate anch expansion in rural areas. India has the highest number of households (145 million with 800 million people) excluded from banking. RBI and the government therefore plan to extend financial services to every nook and corner in the next five years. This is an uphill task by any standard. This research paper looks at the challenges faced by Indian banks in the backdrop of the RBI push towards rural banking.
