Indian angel investors have backed Haqdarshak to match needs to government support.

Haqdarshak Empowerment Solutions has registered 1,500 government programs on its platform, such as a fund in Delhi that provides financial assistance for girls’ education.

The Haqdarshack app walks candidates through a multilingual questionnaire, matches them to programs and then helps them apply, collecting a small fee.

The Bangalore-based startup has raised a $191,000 from local angel investors to expand to 5,000 programs in 10 Indian states in the next year.
