The Estimates Committee of the State Assembly has underscored the need to open more sub treasuries in the rural areas of the State.
The committee headed by K.K. Shailaja, MLA, has urged the Treasuries department to carry out feasibility studies and take steps to open more sub treasuries in the rural areas.
In its 11th report tabled in the Assembly earlier this month, the committee observed that majority of the treasuries are in the corporation and municipalities of the State. Opening more sub treasuries in the rural areas would prove a big help to elderly pensioners, the committee said.
