🌟 PM Vishwakarma Yojana: ₹500 per day and easy loan! Major government support for traditional artisans
The government runs several schemes for the people of the country to provide employment and financial security. One such initiative is the Pradhan Mantri Vishwakarma Yojana (PM Vishwakarma Yojana) — launched to empower traditional artisans and workers.
💰 ₹500 daily assistance and low-interest loan
Under this scheme, beneficiaries receive financial assistance of up to ₹500 per day. In addition, they get access to loans at very low interest rates.
👉 In the first phase – loan up to ₹1 lakh
👉 On timely repayment – second installment of up to ₹2 lakh
This amount is directly transferred to the beneficiary’s bank account, helping them restart their work and manage daily expenses.
🧑🔧 Who can benefit?
This scheme is specifically designed for traditional artisans and workers such as:
🔹 Carpenters
🔹 Blacksmiths
🔹 Goldsmiths
🔹 Potters
🔹 Tailors
🔹 Cobblers
🔹 Masons
🔹 Barbers
🔹 Washermen
The government’s goal is to reconnect these traditional “Vishwakarmas” with the mainstream economy.
🎓 Training and modern toolkit support
Beneficiaries receive an identity card, certificate, and training from the government.
🕒 Training duration: 15 days
💵 Incentive during training: up to ₹500 per day
They are also provided with modern tools (toolkits) and trained in new business skills so they can meet current market demands.
🌾 Special focus on rural and small-town artisans
The primary focus of the PM Vishwakarma Yojana is on artisans from rural areas and small towns who previously had limited access to bank loans or government aid. This scheme now provides them with a direct platform and financial assistance to become self-reliant.
🔔 Conclusion
The Pradhan Mantri Vishwakarma Yojana not only provides financial support to artisans but also connects them to modern business opportunities. It is giving a new identity and strength to India’s traditional industries.
