"Digital India, but no ATM within reach for six villages in Rafiabad. Time this changed."

Subject: Request for Installation of ATM Machine at Tragpora, Ferozpora, National Highway Main Chowk, Rafiabad, Baramulla
Respected Sir/Madam,
With due respect, I would like to draw your attention towards the pressing need for an ATM facility at Tragpora, Ferozpora, National Highway Main Chowk, Rafiabad, Baramulla.
Although there are several bank branches operating in the adjoining areas, none of them have an ATM facility installed nearby. As a result, the residents of nearly five villages in this region face great difficulty in accessing basic banking services. During emergencies, holidays, or after banking hours, people are compelled to travel 3 to 4 kilometres to the nearest available ATM, which is particularly inconvenient for elderly people, patients, students, and daily wage earners.
Tragpora Ferozpora Chowk, being located on the National Highway, is a central and easily accessible point for residents of the surrounding villages. Installing an ATM at this location would greatly benefit the local population and also encourage more people to adopt digital banking services.
We therefore request your good self to kindly look into this matter and take necessary steps for the installation of an ATM machine at the above-mentioned location at the earliest.
We hope for a positive response and remain grateful for your kind consideration.
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
Mushtaq Ahmad lone
Sadipora Rafiabad,
