This innovative scheme aims to improve the economic conditions of people belonging to backward classes, most backward classes, minorities, and denotified communities in Tamil Nadu.

According to the announcement, the government will provide a grant of Rs. 3 lakhs to cover the costs of necessary machinery, raw materials, and other preliminary expenses required to establish a readymade garment production unit. To be eligible for this scheme, applicants must form a group of 10 members, with each member's annual income not exceeding Rs. 1 lakh.
