The much-awaited SUBHADRA Yojana registration for women in Odisha starts today.
The Odisha government has already released guidelines for the Subhadra scheme, and applying is completely free. Offline forms can be picked up at all Anganwadi centers, Block offices, Mo Seva Kendras, and Jan Seva Kendras.
As the SUBHADRA Yojana begins today, let's look at five major women-focused schemes to understand their benefits better.
Lakhpati Didi Yojana: This program, launched by the Government of India, helps women in rural areas become economically independent by providing development training.
Sukanya Samriddhi Yojana: This scheme offers a savings plan specifically for girls. It provides a high interest rate of 8.2% annually and includes tax benefits.
Ujjwala Yojana: This initiative aims to provide clean cooking fuel, like LPG, to women in rural areas and underserved households, improving their access to safer cooking options.
Nai Roshni: This program helps minority women by raising awareness about their rights and boosting their confidence.
UDAAN: Launched by CBSE, this scheme supports disadvantaged girls by helping them transition from school to higher education, particularly in engineering colleges.
