Raipur, October 11, 2024: NABARD has published the findings from its second All India Rural Financial Inclusion Survey (NAFIS) for 2021-22, which offers primary data based on a survey of one lakh rural households, covering various economic and financial indicators in the post-COVID period.
Recognizing the vital role of financial inclusion for economic development, NABARD conducted the inaugural survey for the agricultural year (July-June) 2016-17, with results released in August 2018.
Since then, the economy has faced numerous challenges, and policies have been implemented to support agriculture and boost rural socio-economic progress.
The NAFIS 2021-22 results could help to shed light on how rural economic and financial development indicators have evolved since 2016-17.
The survey included all 28 states and the Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh.
