She told him that her department (PMMY) has started a loan distribution scheme between Rs.50,000 to Rs. 20,00,000 exclusively for women. Initially, Priya asked Pramod to pay Rs.1000 as processing fees for the loan and he was also asked to submit the Aadhar Card and Pan Card of his wife which he did. The very next day Priya asked him to pay the insurance charges of Rs.18,150 and then demanded Rs. 36,200 as loan approval fees.
