The PM Vishwakarma Yojana, a key government initiative launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is making a positive impact in rural areas of India. In Damoh district, Madhya Pradesh, Mihervan Singh Rajput, a former daily wage laborer, has transitioned into a successful small business owner with the help of this scheme.
Mihervan, residing in Dhangaur village, faced financial challenges while working as a laborer due to limited education and job opportunities. His life changed when he discovered the PM Vishwakarma Yojana, designed to support artisans and traditional workers.
After applying for the scheme online, Mihervan was selected as a beneficiary and underwent three months of skill training in Damoh, specializing in aluminum and glass work. He then secured a loan of Rs 50,000 from a local bank, combined with his savings to start his business.
Today, Mihervan’s business earns him Rs 30,000 to Rs 40,000 monthly, a significant improvement from his previous income. Additionally, he provides employment by paying a monthly salary of Rs 8,000 to another worker. Mihervan expressed gratitude towards PM Modi for the life-changing opportunity provided by the PM Vishwakarma Yojana.
