Urban Co-operative Banks (UCBs):Solution

These banks were traditionally centred around communities, localities work place groups. They essentially lent to small borrowers and businesses. Today, their scope of operations has widened considerably.The first known mutual aid society in India was probably the "Anyonya Sahakari Mandali" organised in the erstwhile princely State of Baroda in 1889 under the guidance of Vithal Laxman also known as Bhausaheb Kavthekar.
