PCBs to be stripped of banking powers

............The circular has been issued on the basis of the recommendations of the Prakash Bakshi committee constituted by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) to streamline the functioning of credit cooperatives. The circular says the PCBs will function as business correspondents of the district and State cooperative banks. The share capital mobilised by them by way of share-linked capital of the loans will get transferred to the books of the district and State Cooperative banks. They will function as independent entities out of their own fund and earn income or service charges for rendering the services listed out by NABARD........
