Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has said that a scheme to provide an interest-free loan of Rs 10,000 to rural street vendors of Madhya Pradesh has been implemented, in order to give a strong foundation to their business.
All vendors will be provided with identity cards, so that they can do their work in a respectable manner.
Chouhan said that big companies will not be allowed to snatch away the business of small businessmen. Addressing the street vendors, Chief Minister Chouhan said that I have faith in your hard work, therefore I am taking the guarantee of your loan and the government will also repay the interest of this loan.
Chouhan was addressing a programme, organized for loan distribution to small businessmen of rural areas at Minto Hall, Bhopal on Thursday.
