About the organization:
Rural credit policy in India has had at its core the twin goals of bringing an increasing number of people within the formal financial system and using credit as an instrument of poverty alleviation. Several measures have been taken by Government of India and Reserve Bank of India, from time to time to achieve these goals. Even after commercial banks were brought into the field of Rural banking in the post nationalization scenario, a large segment of the rural population remained out side the fold of banking services. Therefore, the Govt. of India took a decision to establish a new set up regionally oriented rural banks which would combine the local feel, familiarity characteristic of co-operatives and professionalism and resource base of commercial banks. Following the recommendations of the committee, Regional Rural banks (RRBs) were set up first on 2nd October, 1975. Their number went up to 196 by the year 1987. As enshrined in the Preamble to the RRBs Act, 1976, The RRBs were established with a view to developing the rural economy by providing, for the purpose of development of agriculture, trade commerce, industry and other productive activities in the rural areas, credit and other facilities, particularly to small and marginal farmers, agricultural labourers, artisans and small entrepreneurs, and for matters connected therewith and incidental thereto. It was in the year 2004 that Government of India, decided to consolidate the RRBs into state-level entities sponsored by same commercial bank. The amalgamation process began in September, 2005. The first RRB in south India was established by Canara Bank on 25.01.1976, by name Tungabhadra Gramin Bank. Subsequently, Canara Bank established and sponsored Chitradurga Gramin Bank, Kolar Gramin Bank and Sahyadri Gramin Banks in Karnataka State. All the above mentioned four RRBs were amalgamated and Pragathi Gramin Bank came into existence on 12.09.2005. Regional Rural Banks are special category of Banks established by Govt. of India in 1975 under the Provisions of the Ordinance promulgated by the President of India on 26.09.1975. This Ordinance later was replaced by RRBs Act, 1976 enacted by the Parliament. RRBs are Scheduled Banks Notified by Reserve Bank of India. The powers to make Rules, Regulations & Frame the policy matters relating to RRBs are vested with Government of India. As at March 09, there were 86 RRBs operating in 615 districts with 15107 branches in the Country. Their total business stood at Rs.187013 Crore as at March 2009. SBI & its associate banks are established by Govt. of India but they are not included under Nationalised Banks category. Nationalised Banks were earlier Private Limited Banks and subsequently taken over by Govt. of India through Nationalisation process. Similarly, RRBs are 100% Government owned Banks and enjoy equal status as that of Nationalised Banks/State Bank group. Scheduled status conferred to the Bank by Reserve Bank of India All our Branches and Offices of our Bank are computerized. Government of India and Reserve Bank of India has directed RRBs to implement Core Banking Solutions [CBS] under the guidance of respective Sponsor Banks. Our Bank has been given a lead role by Sponsor Bank to take up necessary initiatives for ensuring implementation of Core Banking Solutions in all the 3 RRBs sponsored by Canara Bank i.e. Pragathi Gramin Bank, South Malbar Gramin Bank and Shreyas Gramin Bank. For this purpose a high-level Core Committee of Executives from Canara Bank and Chairmen of the 3 RRBs has been constituted. The Committee has provided a road-map to the RRBs for implementation of CBS within 30.09.2011.
After introduction of Core Banking Solutions, Bank contemplates to provide facilities like NEFT/RTGS, Mobile Banking etc.
