The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had decided on Friday to enable all banks to begin cardless cash withdrawals through ATMs in order to avoid fraud. "It is now suggested to use UPI to enable cardless cash withdrawals across all banks and ATM networks." The elimination of the requirement for a real card for such transactions will help avoid frauds in the form of card skimming, card cloning, and other forms of fraud," RBI Governor Shaktikanta Das said while announcing the bi-monthly monetary policy review.
