BHOPAL (Madhya Pradesh): The non performing assets (NPA), which followed non-payment of loans disbursed under government-run welfare schemes are mounting up in the state. This was revealed at the state-level bankers' committee meeting held here on Thursday.
Despite numerous efforts made by banks, the scheme beneficiaries who took loans are not paying back in instalments. Worse, banks are not able to settle the loan payment through One Time Settlement Scheme because of one of the clauses in MoU signed between state government and banks restricts them to do so, sources said.
The same issue was discussed at bankers' committee meetings earlier too wherein banks had requested government to take steps for recovery of banks dues.
