Centre Launches Microloans for Gig Workers and Helpers

The Centre is launching a new microcredit program to help gig workers and domestic helpers get loans up to ₹10,000! Inspired by the PM Street Vendors Atma Nirbhar Nidhi, this scheme will help them buy essential items like two-wheelers. With minimal defaults so far, it's clear that support is needed as the gig economy grows.
