UP gov has asked banks to give priority to Ms while disbursing loans. In fact, gov has asked banks to give at least 15% to Ms of the area. In 2020-21, Rs 53,325.88 Cr were disbursed to Ms.

Apart from these direct schemes, gov has tweaked system in favor of Ms, for example, Apeda approved abattoirs in UP sell Halal meat worth USD 2 Billion each year - all going to Ms. This is just the tip of the iceberg.
