Dear Sir,
Master Circular- Priority Sector Lending – Credit Facilities to Minority Communities
Reserve Bank of India has, periodically, issued instructions/directives to banks with regard to providing credit facilities to Minority Communities. To enable banks to have current instructions at one place, a Master Circular incorporating all the existing guidelines/instructions/directives has been prepared and is appended. We advise that this Master Circular has been updated and consolidates all the previous instructions issued by Reserve Bank from time to time, which are listed in the Annexure – IV.
Please acknowledge receipt.
Yours faithfully,
(Dr. Deepali Pant Joshi)
Chief General Manager – in – Charge
