NEW DELHI: The NarendraModi government has disbursed 27 crore Mudra loans to women entrepreneurs who have empowered the Indian economy with their “womanly force”, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said on June 6.
The Pradhan Mantri MUDRA Yojana (PMMY) is a scheme launched by Prime Minister NarendraModi on April 8, 2015, to provide loans up to Rs 10 lakh to non-corporate, non-farm small and micro enterprises.
In a series of tweets, Shah said the celebration of womanhood is not a mere slogan for Prime Minister Modi and in the nine years of women-led development, it is now a reality where women have shattered the glass ceiling in all walks of life from space to start-ups and defence to domestic affairs, leading the nation to new heights.
