Tripura Puno Baniya Scheme – A new program has been introduced in Tripura for the welfare of the state’s jobless young people, particularly in goat livestock husbandry. Goat farming is particularly profitable since it yields great returns in a short period of time. To support the expansion and development of the animal husbandry industry, the federal and state governments have jointly implemented a plan that assists livestock upkeep through loans and subsidiaries. A similar program that has a budget of Rs 2 lakh for each unit supports piggeries is also in progress according to the officials.

Tripura Puno Baniya Scheme 2024
On July 15th, 2024, there was a meeting held in the tribal welfare department between the Council of Ministers and the approved scheme named the Tripura Puno Baniya Scheme. As a name, Puno Baniyo means “goat business.” The scheme’s main motive was to help financially the indigenous natives of Tripura.
The plan is that in order to generate a significant amount of money for the state’s indigenous tribal people, a scheme must be credit linked with self-help group members. The money from the scheme is deposited directly into the accounts of self-help group members, who will receive a total of 25,000 rupees.
SHGs are small groups of impoverished people that confront common challenges. They have a common savings account in the bank, which means they have a common fund. From its shared fund, the SHG provides minor loans to its participants.
So the scheme money gets linked to the SHG bank account. Each beneficiary pays Rs 25,100.
The state government pays Rs 1.4 lakh and the rest of Rs 125,500 is deposited as a loan in the accounts of SHG members. Similarly, like a bank that gives loans to its customers, this scheme provides loans to its beneficiaries. Additionally, the plus point is that when these tribal people start earning money from this business, they can pay the loan back in EMIs (installments).
