Jagananna Thodu provides financial assistance up to ₹10,000 at 0% (SUNNA VADDI) interest to hawkers, street vendors, and artisans engaged in traditional handicrafts such as lacework, kalamkari work, Etikoppaka toys, Kondapalli toys, leather puppets, potters, Bobbili Veena, and Brass Craft articles. The scheme aims to ameliorate financial hardship by providing working capital to chiruvyaparulu (street vendors) and traditional handicraft workers who would otherwise resort to loans at usurious interest rates.
