Revamped Stand-Up India scheme soon: Nirmala Sitharaman

Replying to a supplementary question in the Lok Sabha, Sitharaman said the modified programme would incorporate lessons from the earlier scheme, which was discontinued in April 2025 after nine years. With studies done by Niti Aayog and others, this scheme is being redrafted and soon the Cabinet will be given a proposal with which we will launch a new scheme to continue with Stand-Up India, which benefitted SC/ST and women all over the country, she said.
