Speaking on this occasion, the Chief Minister stated that the initiative aims to help small and petty vendors and artisans from the unorganised sector by giving working capital and financial assistance to help them grow their business.

The Chief Minister described small-scale vendors as "essential service providers," saying that the government is relieving them of high interest payments by facilitating bank loans, and that upon timely repayment, all interest will be reimbursed directly to the beneficiaries' accounts, and they will be eligible to take the next loan.

"If you are eligible for the Jagananna Thodu scheme but have not received a loan, you should contact the village secretariats"said CM Jagan. Beneficiaries can call 08912890525 if they have any queries regarding the scheme. He explained that we are providing loans to the beneficiaries without any corruption and irregularities.
