PM Vishwakarma Yojana: eligibility, 18 trades, loan details explained
The Story in Brief
The PM Vishwakarma Kaushal Samman Yojana, launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 17 September 2023, continues to enroll beneficiaries. The scheme is meant for artisans and workers engaged in 18 traditional trades.
Eligible trades include goldsmiths, barbers, sculptors, fishing net makers, doll and toy makers, basket/mat/broom makers, stone carvers, washermen, tailors, hammer and toolkit makers, and cobblers/shoe makers. Beneficiaries receive a loan under the scheme.
Applicants must check their eligibility before joining. The central government runs the scheme alongside various state welfare programmes.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The article explains who can join the scheme but leaves unresolved how much loan is available, the interest rate, and the application process. For a busy reader, the missing numbers matter: no loan amount or subsidy figure is given. The next step for an interested artisan is to verify eligibility against the 18 listed trades and then find the official application portal, which the article does not provide.
