Rajiv Yuva Vikasam Scheme 2025: Telangana’s Push for Youth Self-Employment 🚀
The Government of Telangana has rolled out the Rajiv Yuva Vikasam Scheme 2025 (రాజీవ్ యువ వికాసం పథకం) to empower unemployed youth through self-employment opportunities. This initiative enables eligible youth to receive government-subsidized loans to start their own businesses.
With ₹6,000 Crores allocated and an overwhelming response (8–9 lakh applications online), the scheme’s last date to apply is April 14, 2025. Importantly, applicants can now use an Income Certificate instead of a ration card—removing a major hurdle for many.
