New Delhi : Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit Monday announced a self-employment scheme for people from the weaker sections of society.

“The beneficiaries will now be eligible for a loan of up to Rs.500,000 as against the existing loan of Rs.100,000 for starting income generating activity under an earlier scheme called the composite loan scheme,” she added.
