Mumbai, Sept. 30 HDFC Bank launched ‘Project Jharkhand’ an IT-enabled financial inclusion. As part of the programme, the bank launched its services at a Common Service Centre (CSC) in Kanke comprising over 1.5 lakh households spread across 100 villages in 30 Panchayats.

The bank also adopted Chakala village near Ranchi as part of the programme, said a press release from the bank.

Under Project Jharkhand, HDFC Bank will look to cover over 45 lakh households in the State through both the CSC and village adoption models, subject to regulatory provision.

These CSCs will provide services ranging from public information services, e-governance services, educational services to agri related and financial services. CSCs will also work like a ‘Human ATM’ that the rural people can use to withdraw and deposit cash.
