branches a r e es tabl i shed i n t h e ident i f ied areas the
immediate task f o r t h e branches i s t o make them viable
by mobilising the deposits and advancing the c r e d i t

lead bank scheme i s t o be undertaken on the guidelines
provided by t h e Reserve Bank of Indie under the l i c e n s i n g

BRANCH EXPANSION
Soon a f t e r t h e completion of i n i t i a l surveys
branch expansion Programme has been i n i t i a t e d . The lead
banka i n 00-operation with o ther banks functioning i n
t h e d i s t r i c t s have taken the responsib i l i ty of planning
t h e branch expansion pmgromme and a l l o c e t i n e t h e iden-

d i s t r i b u t e d among banke depending on t h e branch n e t work
of t h e banks, t h e personnel avai lable with t h e banks,
proximity of t h e cent res , capacity of t h e banks i n terms
of i t s resources and the willingness of the banks.
The o v e r a l l performance of commercial banks s l n c e

has been computed fo r 1969 and 1989 for each s t a t e i n

and l a rge backward State8 received greater a t t en t l cn

the geographical quotient of backward s t a t e s l i k e Assam,

Branch ExDaneion Policy 1985-90
While reviewing t h e previous l icens ing pclicy end

t h a t t h e branch l icens ing pclioy i s followed, so f a r , has
been ins t rumenta l i n Providing f a i r l y in tens ive banking
coverage i n r u r a l and semi-urban areas. I t i s , however,
f e l t t h a t t h e banking system in t h e country has been put
t o aevere s t r a i n on account of t h e phenomenal expension
since 1969. The massive geographical expansion coupled
with l a r g e s c a l e growth i n the volume of business and
c l i e n t e l e has brought i n i t s wake c e r t a i n a t tendsnt
problems a f f e c t i n g the operational effioiency of banks.
The Reserve Bank of India therefore f e l t t h a t under the
new l i c e n s i n g policy, attempts should be made t o provide
banking f a c i l i t i e s only i n those pockets of r u r a l a reas ,
where t h e r e a r e wide s p a t l a l gaps. Thus, t h e l ioences
should be granted on se leot ive bas is so t h a t t h e proposed

The main objec t ives of t h e lead bank scheme was
the branch expansion i n the r u r a l Pockets which have been

the branches were es tab l i shed and deploying t h e o r e d i t t o

t i o n of branches, ca lcu la ted through geographical quot ien t
