Agricultural loans given to people who died before independence or never went to the bank

In Gaibandha, 14 families were surprised to receive bank notifications regarding agricultural loans taken out in the names of deceased relatives or individuals who had never engaged with the bank. These loans were granted under the Palli Sanchay Bank as part of the "One House, One Farm" initiative, intended for poverty alleviation. However, the implementation of the program was flawed, resulting in these irregularities and underscoring substantial management deficiencies within the bank. This occurrence has sparked apprehension regarding the institution's supervision and responsibility in disbursing loans.
