SHILLONG, Dec 3 - Opposition United Democratic Party in Meghalaya has sought PM�s intervention to ease dispensing cash from banks and increase withdrawal limit in the State ahead of Christmas festival.

The party has sought the PM�s intervention in view of the fact that a large chunk of rural population in the State, which has about three million population, are yet to have bank accounts.

�The present strictures put forth by your government needs to be relaxed in a manner that would ease the dispensation of cash from banks and also an increase in withdrawal limits,� UDP said in a letter faxed to the PMO.

�We request you to kindly intervene at this juncture on account of the festive season that is being widely celebrated and more so for Christian-populated State,� it said. � PTI
