This Bank Provides The Best Education Loan

Education is the primary right of every citizen of Bharat!

When a child succeeds in higher secondary education, this “Primary Right” remains a dream for millions of students in Bharat. According to the 2011 census report, 74.05% of Bhartiyas are literate but only 8.15% of Bhartiyas are graduates. And, the biggest reason behind this weak growth of academic literacy is the lack of money available to these families.

The government has introduced many credit programs for students. Among the banking and non-banking corporations, UCO Bank seems most focused on nurturing the great academic future of the young Bharat.

Covid-19 has severely hit the national economy badly, causing serious damage to the education sector and its students. The students who are willing to pursue higher education but lack the necessary financial support can avail Academic Education Loan from UCO Bank. The scheme offers an education loan at a 2.40% rate of interest. The Banur branch has launched an awareness about this scheme in S.A.S Nagar, Punjab.
