Haqdarshak

Closing the distance between the government welfare schemes and the people via technology

Problem

The government of India spends almost 7 per cent of its GDP on welfare schemes and services for the people. However, the funds are often underutilised. The major reason is an information gap between the existing scheme and the people, as it fails to register at a grassroots level. Additionally, language barriers, the remote location of numerous beneficiaries, the lack of proper infrastructure and illiteracy further compounds the problem.

Social Impact

  • The company has positively impacted over 24 lakh people across the country.
  • They have successfully utilized INR 4000 crores to help over 35629 micro businesses.
  • Around 25676 Haqdarshaks are operational in over 24 states.
