As per a press release by the Cabinet, the move comes with a total financial outlay of Rs. 7,332 crore and is expected to benefit around 1.15 crore street vendors, including 50 lakh new beneficiaries.
Implementation of the scheme would be the joint responsibility of the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs (MoHUA) and the Department of Financial Services (DFS), with DFS being responsible for facilitating access to loans/ credit cards through banks/financial institutions, as well as their ground-level functionaries.

THE EMI ILLUSION: HOW DEBT IS FUELING AND THREATENING INDIA'S MIDDLE-CLASS DREAM
The narrative of India’s economic ascent is often painted with the broad brushstrokes of a burgeoning middle class, one that seemingly possesses all the trappings of modern success: spacious homes, shiny cars, quality education, foreign vacations, and the latest technological gadgets. On the surface, it appears that “good days are here,” a testament to rising prosperity and economic liberalization. However,acloser examination revealsa more precarious reality, one underpinned notby sustainable wealth but by the seductive and often dangerous allure of easy credit. The Indian middle class has, believe it or not, metamorphosed into an “EMI class,” where every aspiration, from theessential to the extravagant, is available for the price ofa few monthly installments. This systemic reliance on debt is not just reshaping consumption patterns; it is forging a debt trap that threatens financial stability, mental peace, and the very foundations of the economic progressit purports to symbolize. The facade of prosperity is cracking under the weight of cumulative liabilities, revealing a deep-seated crisis where dreamsare purchased on credit, and peace of mind is the first casualty.
