Pointing out that the centrall and state governments have introduced a number of schemes to double framers income and for development of the agriculture quarter, mr. Prasanna directed the banks to sanction such loans with none demure. Additionally, banks need to not make farmers go to branches regularly for availing of loans. Banks should try to come to be farmer-friendly, he counseled.
