Under the Aegis of Mission Youth, Mumkin scheme has been launched by Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha, a customized livelihood generation scheme for the youth of Jammu and Kashmir.
Under the scheme, unemployed youth are facilitated to procure small commercial vehicles on subsidized basis to establish a sustainable livelihood in transport sector. The 'Mumkin' is a livelihood programme designed primarily for unemployed young people in the age group of 18 to 35. Through 'Mumkin' scheme, small commercial vehicles are being provided to the youth with the banking partner extending the loan facility to the extent of 100 percent for on-road price of the vehicle to be purchased.
Apart from this, Mission Youth, J&K provides an amount of Rs 80,000 or 10 percent for on-road price of the vehicle (whichever is lesser) as upfront subsidy and the vehicle manufacturers (scheme partner of government) provides an upfront special discount, not less than the amount of subsidy. To make the scheme implementation completely transparent and fast, a module has been developed on JK-e-Services portal for operating the scheme digitally.
Similarly, for young ambitious women, Tesjaswani scheme' has been launched by Government which provides financial assistance for setting up gainful self-employment ventures, suited to their skills, training, aptitude and local conditions.

Mission Youth J&K is also providing an amount of Rs 50,000 or 10% of project cost as upfront subsidy. Besides, an interest subvention up to 60 thousand rupees is also being sponsored by the government as special incentive thus making repayment of loan technically interest free for the young female entrepreneurs who apply for assistance under the scheme.
The scheme intends to provide assistance to all eligible young women who are domiciles of J&K and have a qualification of matriculation and above. It also caters to enterprises where women entrepreneurs hold not less than 50% of financial holding, besides providing assistance to set up women centric businesses and micro start-ups.
Also, the 'Spurring Entrepreneurship Initiative' programme is built on the idea of the Youth Enterprise with Innovation (YouWiN) and Champion for Innovation initiative, which aims to inspire young people, especially young women, to start and grow innovative businesses.
