Financial inclusion

The Department of Posts ( DoP) has decided to leverage its extensive network in rural as well as in urban areas to financially include BPL households by opening their savings accounts at their nearest Post Offices. These accounts will not only serve the purpose of financial inclusion but also constitute critical infrastructural support to transfer cash benefits to the BPL households. This will go a long way in reducing their poverty and furthering the mandate of Government of India and the State Governments. More than 1.2 crore such accounts have already been opened so far across the country. Various Ministries and Departments of Government of India have been addressed to consider delivering cash components of their social security and welfare schemes targeting the BPL households through these accounts.

Why Work

Every one must work in the universe. Only those who are perfectly satisfied with the Self, whose desires do not go beyond the Self, whose mind never strays out of the Self, to whom the Self is all in all, only those do not work. The rest must work.

Karma-Yoga is the attainment through unselfish work of that freedom which is the goal of all human nature. Every selfish action, therefore, retards our reaching the goal, and every unselfish action takes us towards the goal;

Plunge into the world and learn the secret of work, and that is the way of the Karma-Yoga. Do not fly away from the wheels of the world-machine, but stand inside it and learn the secret of work. Through proper work done inside, it is possible to come out. Through this machinery itself is the way out.

Disciple: But, sir what is the necessity at all of doing good to others?

Swamiji: Well, it is necessary for one's own good. We become forgetful of the ego when we think of the body as dedicated to the service of others---the body with which most complacently we identify the ego. And in the long run comes the consciousness of disembodiedness. The more intently you think of the well-being of others, the more oblivious of self you become. In this way, as gradually your heart gets purified by work, you will come to feel the truth that your own Self is pervading all beings and all things. Thus it is that doing good to others constitutes a way, a means of revealing one's own Self or Atman.

Inactivity should be avoided by all means. Activity always means resistance. Resist all evils, mental and physical; and when you have succeeding in resisting, then will calmness come.

As per Para 31 of schedule II of NREG Act, 2005, payment of NREGS wages shall be made through the individual or joint saving accounts of the NREGS workers opened in banks or in post offices.

Starting with Andhra Pradesh Postal Circle in 2005, the scheme of disbursement of NREGS wages through post office accounts is presently operational in 19 postal Circles of the country (except Delhi, J&K and Tamil Nadu Postal Circles). As on 31st January 2010, nearly 3.92 crore NREGS accounts have been opened in post offices and wages amounting to nearly Rs. 6,000 crores have been disbursed to NREGA beneficiaries through 98, 811 post offices across the country.
