Mysore/Mysuru: MCC Additional Commissioner N.M. Shashikumar has stated that over 5,000 street vendors have received micro finance loans under Prime Minister’s Atmanirbhar Yojana, in Mysuru City Corporation (MCC) limits.
“Livelihoods of street vendors had been hit hard due to COVID-19 and subsequent lockdown. In an effort to support them, Central Government had launched PM SVAnidhi or Pradhan Mantri Street Vendor’s AtmaNirbhar Nidhi Scheme, which is a special micro-credit facility plan to provide affordable loan of up to Rs. 10,000 to more than 50 lakh street vendors in the country,” he said.
