Khullar also said that financial inclusion can be deeply achieved by harnessing new technology which does not cater exclusively to those who are already banked or those living in urban areas.

"Do not delude yourself into believing that merely because technology exists, it will be suddenly harnessed for everybody's good. The way it has worked so far at least, it has been harnessed for the good of a very few as it's only those having devices and are electronically savvy who are in good shape," he added.
