CM YS Jagan to launch YSR Nethanna Nestham on June 20 to benefit weavers in AP

Despite the coronavirus outbreak in the state, the Andhra Pradesh government is not backing down on the implementation of welfare schemes. For the second year in a row, steps are being taken to implement welfare schemes. The latest me to be implemented is the YSR Nethanna Nestham scheme, which aims to provide financial assistance to weavers. CM Jagan will launch this project on the 20th of this month. The Government has now collected a list of eligible beneficiaries for the scheme through village and ward volunteers. Funds for the scheme have also been released.

There are some who are not eligible for last year's financial support even if they are eligible. The government has set a green flag to help them too. In the current crisis of power looms, the government provides financial assistance of Rs. 24,000.

The scheme was to be launched on the 17th of this month but due to an assembly session, it was postponed to the 20th of this month. CM Jagan would disburse the amount into beneficiaries' bank accounts directly online.

Earlier, six months ago, last year, the government provided financial support under the scheme where a lot of people got out of debt.
