The Goa government on Thursday directed banks, co-operative societies
and co-operative credit societies to keep their branches open, in order
to mitigate the rush expected in the first week of April on account of
money scheduled to be deposited in accounts of beneficiaries of central
and state government schemes.
At a meeting of officials of banks
and other financial institutions chaired by Finance Secretary Daulat
Havaldar the latter took stock of cash availability in the state.
"The
issue of possibility of crowding at bank branches and ATMs due to
various transfers by government of India and state government to the
beneficiaries was discussed. There is a fairly good presence of bank
branches and ATMs across the state," a government spokesperson told
reporters on Thursday.
"Registrar of Co-operative Societies was
instructed to issue directions to the cooperative banks and co-operative
credit societies to keep their branches open in order to ensure smooth
functioning of cooperative banks and cooperative credit societies. The
public sector banks and private banks were directed to open all their
branches in the state," the spokesperson said.
Representatives of
the Reserve Bank of India, who were present at the meeting, said that
there is "sufficient cash required for the next six months" in the
state.
"More than 85 per cent of existing ATMS are functional and
adequate cash liquidity is maintained. SBI has started operation of one
mobile ATM," the spokesperson said.
