Madhubani Bank KYC Camps will be organised from November 17 to 20, 2026, across all panchayats of the Andhratharhi block in Bihar’s Madhubani district.
The initiative aims to help rural residents complete bank account KYC and reactivate inactive accounts without travelling to towns or standing in long bank queues.
The special camps have been planned by the block administration following directions from the district authorities.
Block Development Officer (BDO) Rakesh Roshan has taken the initiative to make essential banking services more accessible to people living in rural areas.
State Bank of India (SBI), Punjab National Bank (PNB) and Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank have been instructed to participate in the four-day campaign.
 Madhubani Bank KYC Camps Schedule and Locations
According to the administration’s decision, special banking camps will operate on November 17, 18, 19 and 20, 2026.
The camps will be organised at Panchayat Sarkar Bhawans or Panchayat Bhawan premises across the panchayats of Andhratharhi block.
The decision was taken during a meeting held at the block conference hall with managers from different banks.
Officials discussed arrangements to ensure that residents could complete their pending banking work close to their homes.
The initiative is expected to reduce the difficulties faced by villagers who otherwise have to travel to nearby towns to visit bank branches for routine account-related services.
Which Banking Services Will Be Available?
The primary objective of the campaign is to help bank customers complete their Know Your Customer (KYC) formalities and reactivate accounts that have become inactive.
Customers whose accounts have remained unused for a long period can approach the camps to understand and complete the necessary reactivation procedures.
The administration has specifically asked participating banks to ensure that their teams are available throughout the campaign.
Common Service Centre (CSC) operators will also participate in the camps to assist residents with the required procedures.
This arrangement is intended to make the process more convenient, particularly for elderly residents and people who find travelling to bank branches difficult.
SBI, PNB and Gramin Bank Teams to Participate
The block administration has issued instructions to managers of SBI, PNB and Dakshin Bihar Gramin Bank to make the necessary arrangements.
Bank officials have been asked to bring their CSC operators and supporting staff to the designated locations.
The participation of multiple banking institutions is important because residents may have accounts with different banks.
Having representatives available at the local level can help customers access the relevant services without making separate trips.
The administration is focusing on completing pending KYC work and helping eligible account holders restore banking access through the prescribed procedures.
Why Are These Bank KYC Camps Important?
Bank KYC is an important process through which financial institutions verify the identity and address details of their customers.
Banks use this information to maintain updated customer records and comply with regulatory requirements.
Accounts that remain unused for extended periods may become inactive or dormant under banking rules. Such accounts may require additional procedures before customers can resume normal transactions.
For rural residents, completing these formalities can sometimes involve travelling considerable distances and spending time at bank branches.
The Madhubani initiative aims to address these practical difficulties by bringing banking support directly to panchayat-level locations.
It may also help residents who have postponed their KYC updates or account reactivation because of travel difficulties.
What Should Madhubani Residents Do?
Bank customers in Andhratharhi block should visit their respective Panchayat Bhawan or Panchayat Sarkar Bhawan between November 17 and November 20, 2026.
They should carry their bank passbook, Aadhaar card, PAN card if applicable, registered mobile number and other documents required by their bank for KYC verification.
Customers should confirm the exact camp location and timings with their local panchayat office or concerned bank before visiting.
Those seeking account reactivation should also check with bank representatives about any additional documents or formalities required for their particular account.
The administration has appealed to residents to make use of the four-day campaign and complete their pending banking formalities.
