KULGAM: To promote Financial Inclusion at grassroots level, the NRLM Kulgam in collaboration with CSC e-governance distributed 25 Aadhaar Enabled Payment System (AEPS) devices among the selected Digipay Sakhis of the district.
All these digipay Sakhis will facilitate the rural population with financial activities and the move will help in increasing the digital services at the grass roots level in rural areas. In addition it will also help in financial literacy among the rural population.
This initiative has been introduced to promote door-to-door digital banking and financial services in remote areas of the Union Territory.
It was informed that a total of 106 Digi Sakhis have been positioned so far and among these 25 positioned Digi Sakhis have been provided AEPS devices and remaining will be provided in phased manner.
The function was attended by District Manager CSC e-Governance Kulgam, DPM FI, DPM IBCB, DPM Livelihood and Block Programme Managers.
