The programme concluded with an interactive session between bank officials and beneficiaries, where queries related to loan procedures, eligibility criteria and repayment norms were addressed. The successful conduct of the outreach campaign reaffirmed TGB’s dedication to supporting inclusive growth and strengthening the rural and semi-urban economy of Tripura through proactive credit delivery initiatives.
