New Delhi, Dec 29 (IBNS) Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday said the country is looking at creating job-creators and not job seekers as his government wants an inclusive growth.

While speaking after inauguration of the  National Conference of Schedule Castes and Schedule Tribes entrepreneurs on the occasion of the 125th birth anniversary of Dr B R Ambdekar in New Delhi, Modi said financial inclusion and making the bottom of the pyramid stronger is the ultimate goal.

He said, so far, 80 lakh people have received loans from banks under the Prime Minister Mudra Yojna, without the guarantee of a single rupee. Most of these are dalits, OBCs and STs. 

 "We all know Baba Saheb as the man behind our constitution, but not many know him as a master economist,...Ambedkar  was right in saying that industrialisation will give maximum benefit to our dalit sisters and brothers," Modi said.

 
The programme is being conducted to seek the support from the Centre in promoting entrepreneurship among Dalits.
