Government officials in Nagaland have begun an outreach program to inform artisans about the PM Vishwakarma scheme and its benefits.
The state administration of Nagaland has initiated an awareness campaign for the Prime Minister's Vishwakarma scheme, targeting skilled artisans and small‑scale manufacturers across the region. Officials conducted a series of informational sessions in district headquarters, distributing pamphlets that outline eligibility criteria, subsidy amounts, and application procedures.
The scheme, launched at the national level to support traditional craftsmen, offers financial assistance for modernising tools, upgrading workshops, and enhancing market access. Local authorities emphasized that the benefits are open to all registered Vishwakarma community members, irrespective of income level.
Stakeholders, including representatives of artisan cooperatives, were invited to ask questions and receive guidance on completing the online portal. The outreach effort aims to boost enrollment ahead of the upcoming application deadline, ensuring that eligible workers can leverage the scheme to improve productivity and income.
State officials said the campaign will continue for the next few weeks, with additional sessions planned in remote villages to reach underserved artisans.
