NITI Aayog report on digital financial inclusion:
Key recommendations in the report include:
1. Strengthening the payment infrastructure to promote a level playing field for NBFCs and banks.
2. Digitizing registration and compliance processes and diversifying credit sources to enable growth opportunities for MSMEs.
3. Building information sharing systems,including a ‘fraud repository’, and ensuring that online digital commerce platforms carry warnings to alert consumers to the risk of frauds.
4. Enabling agricultural NBFCs to access low-cost capital and deploy a ‘phygital’ (physical + digital) model for achieving better long-term digital outcomes. Digitizing land records will also provide a major boost to the sector.
5. To make city transit seamlessly accessible to all with minimal crowding and queues, leveraging existing smartphones and contactless cards, and aim for an inclusive, interoperable, and fully open system such as that of the London ‘Tube’.

Section 142 of the social security code.
Aadhaar mandatory
The Union government has made Aadhaar mandatory for availing social security benefits, and for registration on a national informal workers' database being developed for migrants.
The labour ministry has notified section 142 of the social security code.
It allows authorities to collect Aadhaar details for the database of beneficiaries under various social security schemes.
The move will be applicable to both formal and informal workers and may also help in curbing duplication of data by keeping imposters at bay, authorities said.
However, people who don't have Aadhaar will not be denied of benefits, the ministry claims.
National informal workers' database
National database for unorganized workers is at an advanced stage of development by National Informatics Centre.

✅🏦Recent change in the law that has brought cooperative banks under the supervision of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI).🏦✅🔵🔽
👆 current affairs for Commerce Optional UPSC @Commerceoptional
✅🔵Who oversees these banks?
In India, cooperative banks are registered under the States Cooperative Societies Act.
They also come under the regulatory ambit of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) under two laws, namely, the Banking Regulations Act, 1949, and the Banking Laws (Co-operative Societies) Act, 1955.

They also come under the regulatory ambit of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) under two laws, namely, the Banking Regulations Act, 1949, and the Banking Laws (Co-operative Societies) Act, 1955.
✅How has The Banking Regulation Act been amended?
Cooperative banks have long been under dual regulation by the state Registrar of Societies and the RBI.
As a result, these banks have escaped scrutiny despite failures and frauds.
The changes to The Banking Regulation Act approved by Parliament in September 2020, brought cooperative banks under the direct supervision of the RBI.
🔵🔽✅Changes brought
The amended law has given RBI the power to supersede the board of directors of cooperative banks after consultations with the concerned state government.
Earlier, it could issue such directions only to multi-state cooperative banks.
Also, urban cooperative banks will now be treated on a par with commercial banks.
And a cooperative bank can, with prior approval of the RBI, issue equity shares, preference shares, or special shares to its members or to any other person residing within its area of operation, by way of public issue or private placements.
It can also issue unsecured debentures or bonds with a maturity of not less than 10 years.
@Commerceoptional
This essentially means non-members can become shareholders of the bank, and this will allow the RBI to merge failing banks quickly.
