National Bank Agricultural and Rural Development () is organising the State Level Credit Seminar 2022-23 in Ranchi on Tuesday to deliberate upon the strategy tobring about the convergence and synergy of programs and plans of the State Government, NABARD, Banks, Civil Society Organisations and others to ensure optimum exploitation of the developmental potential of the State and finalise credit requirement for primary sectors for the year 2022-23.
As part of the credit planning exercise, NABARD has been preparing the district level Potential Linked Credit Plans (PLPs) for each district every year of the State. These documents reflect the credit potential at ground level, as also Infrastructure facilities and linkages necessary for achieving the available potential.
In terms of RBI instructions, the PLPs form the basis for Annual Credit Plans of the banks. The State Focus Paper (SFP), inter alia, is the culmination of the PLP exercise at the State level. It also facilitates the State Government to prioritize allocation of funds for developing rural infrastructure and other development initiatives in the State.
The State Focus Paper (SFP) for the year 2022-23 presents the exploitable potentials in terms of physical and financial quantifications together with sectoral analysis to strategize an implementable State credit programme for the overall Growth in the Priority Sector in the State. The document also contains important suggestions and inputs for being incorporated into the State budget for the year 2022-23.
