Five Years On, Is Modi’s Stand-up India Really Helping The Oppressed Class? © REUTERS / ADNAN ABIDI Subscribe Sputnik International https://sputniknews.com/india/202104091082572653-five-years-on-is-modis-stand-up-india-really-helping-the-oppressed-class/ In April 2016, Narendra Modi s government launched one of its ambitious schemes, Stand Up India. The scheme aimed to provide loans to untouchables, tribal people and women of the society to promote entrepreneurship at the grassroots level focusing on economic empowerment and job creation. After five years of Stand-up India, the data revealed by the Modi government shows things aren’t quite on track with the scheme. The finance ministry report says that only 16,258 people of the Dalit (untouchable) caste have taken out loans in the past five years which is less than 12 percent of the total bank branches in the country.
