What is Bharat Assist? A Revolutionary Public Service & Financial Inclusion Platform
Introduction
In a country as diverse and populous as India, access to essential government services, financial inclusion, and digital connectivity remains a challenge for millions, especially in rural and semi-urban areas. Bharat Assist is a pioneering initiative designed to bridge this gap by offering a one-stop platform for government services, financial solutions, and subsidized products.
By leveraging a nationwide network of Rashtriya Janhit Kendra (RJK) franchises, Bharat Assist empowers local entrepreneurs while ensuring last-mile service delivery for millions of underserved citizens. Whether it's applying for government schemes, accessing financial services like AEPS & BBPS, or purchasing subsidized agritech and household products, Bharat Assist is revolutionizing rural service accessibility in India.
The Vision Behind Bharat Assist
The core mission of Bharat Assist is "Connecting Bharat, Serving People"—a vision rooted in financial inclusion, digital empowerment, and economic growth. Recognizing the difficulties rural populations face in availing basic public services, Bharat Assist aims to:
- Simplify government service applications for citizens.
- Offer affordable financial services, including AEPS, BBPS, and micro-loans.
- Enable employment and entrepreneurship through the RJK franchise model.
- Provide direct access to subsidized essential products, eliminating middlemen.
With these objectives, Bharat Assist positions itself as an alternative to traditional Common Service Centers (CSCs), offering a more efficient, entrepreneur-friendly, and profit-driven model.
Key Services Offered by Bharat Assist
Bharat Assist is a multi-service platform that caters to various needs of individuals, businesses, and rural entrepreneurs. Below are the major services available:
1. Government Scheme Assistance
Many Indian citizens struggle to access government welfare programs due to lack of awareness, documentation issues, and complex application processes. Bharat Assist simplifies this by:
- Helping people apply for schemes such as PM Kisan, Ayushman Bharat, pension schemes, and subsidies.
- Providing real-time tracking and application support.
- Enabling doorstep service delivery through trained Village Development Officers (VDOs).
2. Financial Inclusion Services (AEPS & BBPS)
Bharat Assist acts as a mini-banking hub in rural India through Aadhaar Enabled Payment System (AEPS) and Bharat Bill Payment System (BBPS):
- AEPS allows customers to withdraw/deposit cash using Aadhaar authentication.
- BBPS enables easy payment of electricity, water, DTH, and other utility bills.
- Mini ATM services are available at premium RJK franchises.
This ensures financial access for people without bank branches in their villages.
3. Loan Assistance (Microfinance & Subsidy Loans)
Through Bharat Assist, individuals and small businesses can apply for loans without the hassle of visiting banks. Loan types include:
- Personal Loans
- Business Loans
- Agricultural Loans
- Subsidy-based Loans
Loan application processing is digital, reducing delays and improving accessibility for rural entrepreneurs.
4. Bharat Assist RJK Subsidies – Affordable Essential Products
One of the biggest challenges in rural areas is the high cost of essential goods due to middlemen and supply chain inefficiencies. Bharat Assist directly collaborates with manufacturers to offer 20-40% discounted prices on:
- Agritech products (seeds, fertilizers, farming equipment)
- Household essentials (groceries, kitchen items, hygiene products)
- Electrical & solar products (LED bulbs, solar panels, appliances)
Only users with Bharat ID+ can access these subsidies, making it an exclusive loyalty + subsidy card for Bharat Assist customers.
5. Rashtriya Janhit Kendra (RJK) Franchise Model
Bharat Assist operates through RJK franchises, which act as physical service centers across India. These centers are run by local entrepreneurs and offer:
- Government service applications
- AEPS & BBPS transactions
- Bharat ID+ registration
- Subsidized product sales
This franchise-based approach creates employment while expanding Bharat Assist’s reach.
6. Bharat ID+ – The Digital Identity & Subsidy Card
To make services more accessible, Bharat Assist has introduced Bharat ID+, which offers:
- Exclusive access to Bharat Assist RJK Subsidies
- Digital Identity & loyalty benefits
- A physical Bharat ID+ card for ₹300
This innovative model ensures affordability and financial empowerment for users.

✅ Higher earnings for franchise owners (RJK model)
✅ Diverse revenue streams (Govt services, financial services, and product sales)
✅ Exclusive subsidy model for end consumers
✅ Private sector efficiency with government-backed services
These advantages make Bharat Assist a preferred choice for rural entrepreneurs.
