Rooting for extending banking services to maximum number of people, he said a drive should be launched for opening new accounts.

Expressing dissatisfaction over the slow pace of the “stand up scheme", the chief minister instructed officials to ensure meeting target of loans to SCs/STs and woman entrepreneurs per bank branch, which would also pave way for economic development of the state and creation of employment opportunities.
