The scheme also provided for take over of banks by the Govt.
under certain circumstances.

functions relating to credit to priority sector.
The major objectives,
wider spread of bank credit,
directing large volume of credit flow to the priority sector and
reducing the authority of the members of the managing
committee ,since they acted as the representatives of the
industrialists.

alternative solution.

The Remedial move
Demand for nationalization of commercial banks was
raised quite frequently in the past.
12 point programme was placed in the Bhubaneswar
session of the congress party in 1964 to mitigate the
entire range of economic and Social evils.
The Govt. did not accept that due to administrative
difficulties and other consequential effects in the
economy.However,social control was introduced on 1 st
February,1969 through the enforcement of legislative
measures.

Nationalization of Banks
Promulgation of
the banking companies (Acquisition and
Transfer of undertaking) ordinance 1969. on July 19,1969 under
which 14 commercial banks with deposits over Rs.50 crore each
were Nationalized.
When the government of any country takes the ownership of
any industry or enterprise in its own hand, then this process is
known as nationalization.
The term social control does not mean nationalization of the
banks.

 The difference between social control and
nationalization is that in nationalization both the
ownership and control are taken up by the
government, while in social control ownership
does not rest in the government.
 Social control implies restricted freedom to the
bankers, it will give more powers to the central
government and credit will be regulated for the
social welfare.

The main objectives of Nationalization
As set out by the then prime minister, smt.Indira Gandhi, were
Removal of control on banking business by a few industrialists:
Prior to nationalization many banks were controlled by private
business houses and corporate families. It was necessary to
check these monopolies in order to ensure a smooth supply of
credit to socially desirable sections.
Elimination of the use of bank credit for speculative and
unproductive purposes.

Developing Banking Habits : In India more than 70%
population used to stay in rural areas. It was necessary to
develop the banking habit among such a large population.
Reducing Regional Imbalance : In India where we have a
urban-rural divide; it was necessary for banks to go in the
rural areas where the banking facilities were not available.
In order to reduce this regional imbalance nationalization
was justified
