There are more then 41% i.e 49.61 crore people still without a bank account. The average bank to area ratio is so poor, that is few places specially in rural areas people are unable to find banks within 5km sq area. Around 80 % of our population doesn&#8217;t have life insurance or health insurance. The knowledge about finance or the financial literacy rate is also very poor in the country. Most of the people are still unaware of the government loans and interest<br \/>\nrates and other financial policies. The population of the country is constantly at rise and so is the need for revenue generation, this has lead to need of including the low income group people into our financial system. So now the question which we all must be wondering about is how inclusion<br \/>\nof poor who do not even have money for a standard lifestyle will contribute to our country\u2019s growth.<br \/>\n\u2022 The first and foremost thing which is necessary for the financial inclusion of poor is opening of<br \/>\nmore and more number of bank branches which will directly contribute in increasing the job<br \/>\nopportunities and also business opportunities as our government has realised the importance of<br \/>\nbanking business agents who will be the key player in providing banking opportunities to every<br \/>\nhousehold.<br \/>\n\u2022 Since the poor population in our country is very high so their inclusion will give a motivate<br \/>\npeople to put money in the bank accounts for the use and help of the poor. So the money, though<br \/>\nvery little will be utilised by banks for the investments plans and hence contribute in revenue<br \/>\ngeneration.<br \/>\n\u2022 The subsidies given by our government to the needy can be directly transferred to their<br \/>\naccounts which will save a lot of paper, work and the leakages which we face today. Hence the<br \/>\nworkload will decrease and the money could be easily utilised for the growth and welfare of the<br \/>\npoor people.<br \/>\n\u2022 With opening bank accounts, people can be provided with health and life insurance which will<br \/>\nmake a huge impact by supporting the people when they really need help and hence there will be<br \/>\nmore heathy and confident population. This will also decrease the burden on government hospitals<br \/>\nand hence provide a better hospitality to the people.<br \/>\n\u2022 Poor will be provided loans with less paper work which will give the young talent a platform to<br \/>\nperform and I, with confidence can say that more entrepreneurs like Sachin<br \/>\nBansal(Flipkart),Bhavish Aggarwal(Ola Cabs) etc will emerge. In addition to this, poor who borrow<br \/>\nmoney from money lenders at very high rate of interest and are trapped into poverty cycle will be<br \/>\nbenefited and hence contribute to the development.<br \/>\n\u2022 Education loans can be provided to the government school students so that they are able to<br \/>\npursue there higher studies. This will provide more skilled population and also fulfil the dreams of<br \/>\nstudents which now are crushed because of the financial crisis.<br \/>\n\u2022 The financial inclusion will also have a positive psychological impact on people by providing<br \/>\nthem a sense of confidence ,inclusion and their own little contribution to the country and hence, will<br \/>\nuplift there psychosocial status.<\/p>\n<p>There is another aspect of growth which is different from economic point of view. The living<br \/>\nstandard , the happiness and the equal opportunities provided to the population contribute a lot<br \/>\ntowards the growth of the country and I believe that poor people have the right to easily accessible<br \/>\nand affordable banking facilities, irrespective of the place they live in. They also deserve the high<br \/>\nstandard bank branches with all new technologies and ATM machines near to their house to make<br \/>\ntheir life more comforting and hassle free.<br \/>\nAlso now as we are moving towards projects like MAKE IN INDIA and DIGITAL india, these<br \/>\nprojects can be a helping hand for financial inclusion of the poor by providing infrastructure and<br \/>\ninternet connectivity throughout the country.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.vskills.in\/certification\/accounting-banking-and-finance\">Click here for government certification in Accounting, Banking &amp; Finance<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Financial Inclusion &#8211; How accessible banking would mean growth for India Poverty&#8217; by definitions is, a state of scarcity of essential resources needed for a comfortable survival and Financial inclusion means giving opportunities of affordable and easily accessible banking facilities and credit to people.
