srinagar, Dec 18: A village in central Kashmir's Budgam district has become the first village in the state to go 'cashless'.
Lanura village, about 30 kms from the summer capital here, has become the first village in Jammu and Kashmir to go cashless, an official spokesman said here today.
He said at least one member of each household in the village has been trained to use Electronic Payment System (EPS).
So far, 150 persons have been provided training to use EPS at Lanura which falls in Panchayat Bugroo-B in block Khansahab of the district.
