A minimum number of savings accounts are opened otherwise and for micro savings or getting bank loans. Most of the villages under Lego Gram Panchayat have at least one savings bank account in Mallabhum Gramin Bank , Bankura District Central Co-operative Bank or Punjab National Bank, or State Bank of India, or Bank of India or Post Office Savings Bank of Lego Post Office. Now consider how many people are utilised banking services for their livelihood?
