“MSME is the largest sector to offer employment in India. However, it has suffered a tremendous loss due to global pandemic. To come out of the disastrous situation we are taking steps via our flagship programme ‘Aatma Nirbhar Bharat’ that will introspect and uplift homegrown brands. We are working on the revival of every sphere to bring the economy back on track. Currently, our core attention is MSMEs and Agricultural activities and we will offer Rs 3 lakh crore as collateral-free or unsecured loan to MSMEs with an annual turnover of Rs 100 crore or an outstanding loan of Rs 25 crore. Further, loans of Rs 20,000 crore will be given to stressed MSMEs. It will help resume businesses, reduce dependence on other countries and strengthen the supply chain.” Shri Pratap Chandra Sarangi, Hon’Minister of State – Government of India – Dairy, Fisheries, Animal Husbandry and MSME
He further adds “Additionally, to ensure the monthly income of Rs 50000 for each household we have been encouraging Integrated farming in the rural region. We are also focussing on women in rural areas and encouraging them to form clusters to operate solar charkha which will cover employment and earnings.”
“Aatma Nirbhar Bharat is the vision of our honourable Prime Minister towards making India a self-reliant nation and the Time2Leap Awards is an initiative that is in line with this towards recognising the efforts of our industry and encouraging them further. I believe the fundamental concept of Aatma Nirbhar Bharat goes back to Bapu’s time wherein he tells us that we should work in such a way that it benefits even the poorest in the country and society
