With this amount, he started his own store and took the business on a large scale. His hard work and workmanship gradually made him a well -known name in Hazaribagh. The result of his hard work is that he can give a better life to his family today. Ajit’s success story was so inspiring that he had the opportunity to meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the then Vice President Venkaeah Naidu at a program arranged in New -Delhi in the year 2018. This meeting further improved its spirits. Later, he took another loan of 3.50 Lakh calls to expand his business further. Ajit Kumar said: “The Mudra Yojana not only gave me financial support but also increased my confidence. I worked in rental gum earlier but now I have my own shop. With the earnings of this store I not only made my home but also my children’s education. Our children are working. Do not just stand on my feet today, but I can give a reverent and better life to my family. Kumar has more than ten years of experience in digital journalism.
