PM Vishwakarma Yojana was launched by the Prime Minister of our country, Narendra Modi, on 1 February 2023. The objective of this scheme is to encourage the artisans of the country. Along with this, they have to be provided employment as well.

According to the website of the scheme, this is the first such scheme, which is specially designed for artisans.

Before knowing more about the scheme, let us see who is eligible for the scheme or who can get the benefit of this scheme.

Who will get the benefit of the scheme?

The age of the applicant should be 18 years or more. Which means that only adults can take advantage of the scheme.

At the same time, this should be the family work of the applicant. That is, grandfather or great-grandfather is associated with craftsmanship.

Only one of the family can take advantage of the scheme. Under this scheme, parents and children are included in a family.

Who does not get the benefit?

According to the information received from the website of the scheme, if a person is already taking advantage of any scheme for business or craftsmanship. So in such a situation, he does not get the benefit of PM Vishwakarma Yojana. Both central and state are included in this scheme.

If someone from the applicant's family is in a government job, then they also do not get the benefit of the scheme.

What are the benefits?

Under PM Vishwakarma Yojana, the applicant is first provided training. This training is for about 15 days. During the training, the person is given Rs 500 as a stipend. At the same time, as soon as the training is completed, you can apply for a loan of up to one lakh rupees.

Along with this, after the loan of one lakh rupees is paid, you can apply for a loan of up to 2 lakh rupees.

After the arrival of machine work, the income of handicraftsmen has reduced. Because more and more products can be made in less time through machine. Their price is also cheaper. Due to this machine work has replaced the artisans. However, many people still like handmade work.Disclaimer: This content has been sourced and edited from Dainik Jagran.
