Hello Everyone !!! Currently, India has approximately 2,38,000 ATM's installed , including both bank and white-label ATM.  Of these, nearly 80% are located in urban or semi-urban areas and the rest in rural areas. The current challenges and suggestions for ATM in India : Not user friendly for illiterate users. Fewer options for regional Indian languages. The ATM industry works at the intersection of banking partners, manufacturers and regulations. Very less margins for operators, so improving customer service quality is a complicated process. Bringing changes in ATM functioning is a costly and complicated process. White-label ATM's are at biggest loss because of low inter-change paid per transaction, aggressive bidding for licenses and low number of ATM's deployed by them. Absence of trained security guards, lack of a secured access system, non-functional CCTV's, no age proof, medical certificate and police verification of guards. Lack of cleaning in ATM,...

Hello Everyone !!! Indian police force is one of the largest police force in the Sub-continent. Yet, it is marred by its own set of challenges and problems. According to a 2018 survey of 15,562 respondents across 22 states on perceptions about policing, the Lokniti team at the  Centre for the Study of Developing Societies (CSDS)   found that less than 25% of Indians trust the police highly. A big reason for the distrust is that interactions with the police can be frustrating, time-consuming and costly. According to the latest available data, 30% of all cases filed in 2016 were pending for investigation by the end of the year.  This   combined with the pendency   in the judiciary means securing justice in India can take a very long time. As in the case of the judiciary, pendency in the police is driven by a lack of resources .  The sanctioned strength of the police across states was around 2.8 million in 2017 (the year with the latest available da...
