Customers face harrowing time as Joykochi CSP remains closed

FROM A CORRESPONDENT

GORESWAR, April 6: Around 3,317 customers of the Joykochi Customer Service Point (CSP) sponsored by Assam Gramin  Vikash Bank (AGVB), Muktapur branch have been facing a lot of problems in their bank fincial transaction following the closure of the CSP since the last 45 days. The  customers of several panchayats  like Bardangerikochi Gram Panchayat, Jatiyabhangara Gram Panchayat  and Loch Gram Panchayat  under Bihdiya- Jajiko  Development Block could not do any fincial transaction in the said CSP, people alleged.

Gargeswar Patowary, who was in-charge of the CSP had resigned from his duty from February 22 , 2017 and he handed over the HHT machine also to the authority concerned - Senrysa  Technology PVT Ltd.

Besides, Ranjit  Patowary has been appointed instead of Gargeswar Patowary as in-charge of the said CSP and the Assam Gramin Vikash Bank, Muktapur branch has reportedly already recognized him as an appointed worker of the Joykochi CSP. Despite this, the Joykochi CSP is remains closed till date.

As a result, customers of the Joykochi CSP have to suffer a lot during transaction at the CSP. On the other hand ,the beneficiaries of PMAY-G of the Joykochi CSP have to start the construction with the help of the first installment amount of Rs 32,500 each, which is to be followed by more installments of Rs 78,000 and Rs 19,000 respectively from the AGVB branch, depending on the progress of the work. But the branch mager of the bank releases only Rs 4,500 as the first installment  and next Rs 4,500 respectively to the beneficiaries concerned, thus allegedly  violating the PMAY-G rules, a press release allegedly stated.

Hence, the beneficiaries of the PMAY-G and customers of the Joykochi CSP under the three GPs have urged the authority concerned to mitigate the problems soon.
