“The entire country waits for the BJP’s ‘Sankalp Patra’. There is a big reason behind it as in the last 10 years, the BJP has implemented every point of its manifesto as a guarantee on the ground. This ‘Sankalp Patra’ empowers all four strong pillars of developed India- Youth, women, poor, and farmers. Our focus is on the dignity of life, quality of lives, and jobs through investment,” PM Modi said.
He also announced that the BJP has decided to double the amount of the MUDRA Yojana loan from 10 lakh to 20 lakh.
“In past years, MUDRA Yojana has turned crores of people into entrepreneurs. Looking at this success, BJP has taken one more ‘sankalp’ – under MUDRA Yojana loans up to Rs 10 Lakhs were provided. Now the BJP has decided to increase the limit to Rs 20 Lakhs. I am confident that this will be used as a new strength towards building the kind of ecosystem that is required for the era of Industry 4.0,” he said.
