Street Vendor & Domestic Worker Drive
Overview
The GNLU Legal Aid Clinic conducted legal awareness drives in the villages of Raysan, Koba and Kudasan as part of its initiative of engagement with street vendors and domestic workers. The drive focused on educating vendors about various governmental schemes and programs that they could benefit from, particularly those aimed at small businesses and street vendors.
Objective
The primary objective of the drive was to raise awareness among the targeted group about available government schemes and provide them assistance for procuring those benefits and further, to give legal guidance and aid for any other issues faced. The drive aimed to empower vendors and domestic workers by bridging the information gaps and helping them apply for schemes, particularly PM Samvidh schemes and schemes on acquisition of bank loans.
