State Bank of India Launches Digital Village Initiative in Nepal
The State Bank of India (SBI) has launched a digital village initiative in Nepal, specifically in Jarisingpouwa, a rural area 25 km east of Kathmandu. The initiative includes the installation of a cash recycling center, enabling villagers to deposit and withdraw money through an automatic machine. Additionally, the bank has distributed 430 debit cards to the local residents, who live in a remote area due to its hillside location but are not far from Kathmandu city. Solar street lights have also been installed in the area. The SBI in Nepal celebrated its 25 years of establishment on July 7.
