Rajasthan Cooperative Gopal Credit Card Scheme Portal Launched
Rajasthan Cooperative Gopal Credit Card Loan Scheme Portal has been started under the leadership of Bhajan Lal Sharma for the prosperity and welfare of farmers and livestock farmers.
Jaipur. Minister of State for Cooperation (Independent Charge) Shri Gautam Kumar Dak said on Wednesday that the state government under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri Bhajan Lal Sharma is committed to the prosperity and welfare of farmers and cattle rearers and to realize this thought, Rajasthan Cooperative Gopal Credit Card Loan Scheme Portal has been launched.
Launching the portal at a function organized at Nehru Sahakar Bhavan, Shri Dak said that for the first time in the country, short term interest free loan of up to one lakh rupees will be made available to the cow rearing farmer families residing in the rural areas of Rajasthan state for a period of one year. He said that no interest will have to be paid if the cow rearing farmer repays the loan on time.
The Cooperative Minister said that the cow rearing farmer families were short of money to buy necessary equipment including shed, play construction and fodder/batta for cows/buffaloes, due to which they were not able to take full advantage of cow rearing. Keeping this in mind, the facility of interest-free loan has been provided to the cow-rearing farmer.
Mr. Dak said that to make the loan distribution transparent and to ensure that the cow-rearing farmer family does not face any inconvenience in getting the loan, the process from loan application to approval will be done online. The cow-rearing farmer can apply for loan through e-Mitra Center or the concerned Gram Seva Cooperative Society. He said that it is mandatory for the cow-rearing farmer to be a member of the primary milk producing cooperative society.
The Cooperative Minister said that camps will be organized under the joint aegis of the Milk Union and Central Cooperative Banks to provide loans to maximum cow-rearing farmers of the state under the Gopal Credit Card Scheme so that the target of providing loans to five lakh farmers set by the State Government can be achieved. He told the officers present on the occasion that the scheme should be publicized to provide maximum benefit of the scheme.
On this occasion, Government Secretary, Cooperation, Smt. Shuchi Tyagi, Registrar, Cooperation, Smt. Archana Singh, Managing Director RCDF, Smt. Sushma Arora, Additional Registrar (First) Shri Rajiv Lochan Sharma, Managing Director Apex Bank Shri Sanjay Pathak along with officials of Cooperative Department and RCDF and Information Technology and Communication Department were present.
