Shri Mishra in the inaugural function mentioned that, “CSCs can play major role in MSME programs like Udyam Sakhi and Udyam Sathi. We can develop a group on this. India is the nation of villages and CSC-Ministry of MSME collaboration can play a major role in investment mobilization.” He added, “CSCs are entrepreneurs in PPP mode. If we can work together towards linkage of banking, infrastructure in rural areas, it will be a path breaking in the inclusive development of nation.”
He was addressing around 700 Village Level Entrepreneurs of CSC from various parts of the country, at the CSC National Workshop at India Habitat Centre today. Shri D. P. Srivastava, DDG, Ministry of MSME, in the workshop of “Digital MSME Scheme” mentioned that the more than 3 lakh CSCs have played a significant role in Digital India initiatives of the Government.

They are taking forward the agenda of the government in serving the underserved especially those living in the Rural India.
Ms. Mandeep Kaur, Jt. Development Commissioner, MSME said, “CSCs themselves are an example for successful SMEs using technology and therefore can act as catalyst for empowering and enabling other entrepreneurs, thereby promoting the growth of MSMEs in the country. CSCs can act as facilitators in disseminating in the schemes and programs of the government to the MSMEs, mainly those in the rural and semi urban areas.” Shri Prakash Mirani, GeM said, “Government e-Marketplace is a path breaking revolution in India’s public procurement. It’s going to be a great boon for MSME.”
