Description

Merger of SBI ASSOCIATES WITH SBI: Boon or Bane for India Why merger is needed is a question of the day. In the recent top 1000 banks of the world, no Indian bank could find place in top 50 being a 7th largest as per GDP and 3rd as PPP. SBI that consists 18% of the total banking money and 6-7% its associates bank, if gets merge can be in the top 50 list of the world. From banking facility point of view, SBI is the most technically advanced as compared to its associates banks. It takes 2-3 years to adopt the same technology for the associate banks that SBI is using now. Other thing is that it is not going to impact customers. They will be getting better facilities or world class facilities. Some associate banks which are under-staffed will get exponential benefit out of it. People might be a bit sentimental as they were using a name for a long time and now have to change. But it is the time to cope with the need of time and not the feelings. It will also help in financial inclusion. Now banks would be able to open the branches in the rural places. It will help people to get banking facilities easily, as all associate banks will be on the same level and providing the same facilities. Merging 27 banks not just SBI and its associates, into 4-5 big banks will boost the banking sector. It may help in reducing the NPAs as well.

Role of Payment Bank and NBFC in Financial Inclusion Financial Inclusion means to give the financial and banking services to low income group at an affordable cost. To maximize the strength of domestic economy, banking services have to reach to every sector and every corner of the country. Banking Industry is playing an important role in providing the Financial Inclusion throughout the country. It is essential to provide the banking and financial services to every citizen without any discrimination. NBFC (Non-Banking Financial Company) is also the source of increasing financial inclusion. NBFCs are much alike to the payment bank, the major different between NBFCs and payment banks is – NBFCs can’t accept demand deposit and can’t avail the cheques. As per the RBI (Reserve Bank of India) guidelines. Every bank must initiate the financial inclusion by simply opening the No Frill Accounts. No Frill Accounts are one of the main assets involved in the progress of financial inclusion. It has no minimum balance conditions and can be opened via minimum document requirement. No frill Accounts are also known as Basic Savings Bank Deposit Account (BSBDA). Payment banks also sponsor the Regional Rural Bank (RRB) to facilitate these kind of services and other main services to the low income group at very low rates. The facility of debit card and credit card is also given to the citizens of rural areas. Now, the payment banks and MBFCs are moving their wheels very fast in the rural areas of country, they are also providing the Small Medium Enterprise loan to the poor. Banks and NBFCs have to

play a dominant and useful role in promoting the economic development by mobilizing the financial resources of the community and by making them flow into the desired way. They are creating a platform for maintaining the habit to save the money in bank. This will eventually boost the currency chest of the country. Before this advancement the amount that was meant for the poor, leaked and cleaned by the political parties and the intended politician. Suppose a subsidy bill is passed by the government for the poor, the amount disbursed to them, is all leaked by the middleman. But now as the banking sectors are reaching everywhere the amount is directly credited to the poor’s account. This service is also known as the Direct Benefit Transfer scheme. This is one of the major advantages we get from the Payment banks and NBFCs.

Education is the single most important factor in the development of a country. Do you agree? Undoubtedly education is the core of development for every country. A strong educational system would create a generation of smart leaders , skilled workers and patriots . Smart leaders are people who steer the country to correct direction by utilizing its internal and external strengths while avoiding hindrances economically , politically and militarily. Skilled workers are the essential force that propels the nation forward. High level skilled workforce would make products with low cost and best quality. This is the key to establish a competitive and prestigious economy. A good nation’s education initiates patriotism in each of their citizens, who are willing to stand up for the country when needed. Nevertheless education alone would never enough to build up a highly developed country because other social, cultural, political aspects can be dominant in development of that country Developed countries always place high education quality in priority. Countries like U.S., U.K, Japan have been spending multi billion dollars for Development and Research programs, where high technologies are studied and developed. Education is compulsory and free of charge. Schools are well equipped with modern and practical facilities. From highschool students are guided to explore their best potentials, which facilitates success of their professional career later on. As most people have possessed of good knowledge from school they are not easily cheated by corrupt officials or criminals which is a severe problem in developing countries. In countries with prestigious universities, education becomes a major business that draws up money from international students. These educational-focused results should be learnt by developing countries. On the contrary the world poorest countries are the ones that tend to neglect the importance of education. Many African countries are in deep civil wars and corruption is rampant. Soldiers fight against their own people without knowing what they are fighting for. Many Asian countries

are damaging their environment by deforesting, disposing untreated pollutants, extracting minerals… because of little immediate profits. Ignorance makes them unaware of how expensive their children would have to pay back in the future. Lack of education leads people to commit crimes without thinking of consequences. Poor education system produces low quality workforce that fails to catch up with practical industrial requirements. The cost that developing countries are and will be paying exceeds the savings by cutting government education budget. Interestingly, some countries do not consider education as the key for country development. Countries like UAE, Qatar or Brunei do not focus on high quality education still they are rich countries. They have rich sources of black gold. Women in some Arabic nations are not expected and not encouraged to study to high level education. This tradition is derived from the culture, and the majority is happy with this arrangement. Other countries do not embrace a strong education system at homeland but they are very strong economies. Taiwan and Hongkong are good examples of this category. They do not have prestigious educational institutes as U.S or UK but most of their white-collar workforce receive education from U.S or UK, then go back and work for the countries. A country that has a strong education system is similar to a house with a solid footing. Education is the foundation on which a prosperous and wealthy country is built on and it is always worthwhile to spend more efforts and expenses to make it firm prior to erecting the house. Like other developing countries Vietnam strives to improve the education system still good policies are just objective factors. It is not necessary that everyone must go to school in order to learn and become knowledgeable. one can learn a lot of good stuff in workplace, in neighborhood and be a useful person for his/her country

Should there be censorship in art and film media? Give your opinion? ‘Censorship’- the very controversial word in the present time. The word censor means- some officials who are liable, can examine the material or a film before its release. Today censorship in art and film means- if the officials of the authority do not like it, they can cut it. Censorship boards are actually suppressing the details in film and art. The producers, actors, directors and their whole crew works months to create a piece of art, to narrate the society and show the reality in their movies, then the authority comes in and cut off the maximum part. This is not good for us, as the freedom of expression is everyone’s birth right. Who are they to decide what we want

or don’t want to see? There are very complex side of this. First side- As us, the filmmakers and artists have the same right of freedom of expression. They work years to show the bitter reality of the society and with the help of some visual they try to make their point. Now, if the censorship has problem with it, they directly remove the part without a single thought, this can be very dangerous as our constitution says the freedom of expression is valid. Sometimes the authority turn down the entire main material of the movie just for their own sake. This happened recently with the movie ‘Udta Punjab’, under political pressures the CBFC (Central Board of Film and Certification) had cut down 81 scenes from the movie. But then the producer of the movie claimed their right and appealed to high court to have a look at the matter, the court then turn down the decision taken by the authority. If government or the authority will censor the material in an art, people will not get complete information and they will unable to make their judgements about the movie. Second side- The power of “Freedom of expression” can be used in a negative manner by the culprits. Sometime the art can be provocative, controversial and an act of violence too, this can lead us to the never ending riots. Therefore the government has to have some rights and regulation on this. In my opinion, first let the people decide what they want or don’t want to see. If the art is provocative then it must be censored. But I must say ‘Censorship for children’ is mandatory as they are developing brains. We have got the CBFC to certify the movie according to the age group and it is also parents responsibility to monitor and guide them to the right path.

Contribution of Nationalized Banks in the growth of Indian Economy. An Economy needs a healthy banking system to protect and strengthen the financial, social and political viability of tenants. In India, the first bank experience started in 1770 from then the development has accelerated and banks are reaching to their excellence. Since the development of Bank of Hindustan, Bank of Bombay, Central Bank of India and lately RBI, the economic position has increased vastly. Now RBI is considered as the soul of banking industry and it regulate the entire money market. The prime role of Banks, when they started was to lend and save, lend money to people and save the money from the people. It helped a lot in capital formation and monetization of economy, since then there are many technical changes have been made and this eventually made the economy better. Banks finances the priority sector under PSL (Priority Sector Lending) i.e. agriculture and small scale lending. Technical innovation has taken the banking services to a new level and now every operation can be done digitally. The contribution to economic growth of Nationalized Public Sector Banks is more than 70% (market share), and it must be appreciated. There are some flaws to this also like the NPA (Non-Performing Assets) are increasing day by day but the banks are working on this. Banks are emerged as a savior for the employment too. This is also a major contribution to the economy. Banks help in both internal and external trade, they give loan to young entrepreneurs to start their idea in the country. Majority of our population lives in rural areas, so banks are more concerned about it but banks had been working

better to providing financial services to rural area and that’s why they sponsored the RRB (Regional Rural Banks) with the help of government. Banks are now providing their services to every corner of the country and this is eventually getting a positive impact on Economy.
