ACHIEVEMENT OF NLUP
The Industries Department is one of the eight Line Departments selected to implement the NLUP programme. There are as many as 30 Nos. of model schemes originally approved by Technical committee where representative of concerned Central Department is presented as one of the member. The ceiling limit of each scheme is fixed at Rs 1.00 lakh for one family. However, due to increase in cost of Auto Rickshaw and Vertical Bandsaw the ceiling limit of the scheme is relaxed for Auto Rickshaw scheme and Wood Processing & carpentry trade I & II at Rs 1.16 lakh and 1.05 lakh respectively. On the other hand, there are some families who cannot take up main trade due to non availability of land and space of their own. Special micro enterprise schemes as home base activity up to the ceiling limit of Rs 50,000.00 are also introduced for those families.
