Safai Karamchari Scheme
The Safai Karamchari Loan Scheme is a welfare initiative introduced by the Government of India to provide financial assistance to safai karamcharis (sanitation workers) and their families.

By offering easy loans, the government ensures that they have access to capital for self-development, business growth, or household improvements.
