In a special event held in the Jajpur district of Odisha, Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi distributed the first instalment of the fourth phase funds for the Subhadra Yojana on Saturday. This women-centric scheme, which aims to empower women, has already benefited 98 lakh women in the last seven months.
The event was also attended by Deputy Chief Minister Pravati Parida, who announced that the second instalment of the funds will be released on March 8, which coincides with International Women's Day. She also assured that those who missed the first instalment will receive their pending amount along with the second instalment.
Addressing the delays faced by some beneficiaries due to issues with the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), Parida stated that the funds will also be released to them on March 8. She urged them to complete the necessary formalities, including NPCI verification and e-KYC updates, by visiting their respective bank branches.
In addition, Parida highlighted the success of the Subhadra Yojana, which was launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on his birthday, September 17, 2023. Under this ambitious scheme of the BJP-led government, eligible women between the ages of 21 to 60 years will receive Rs 50,000 over a period of five years, from 2024-25 to 2028-29.
For those who have applied for the Subhadra Yojana, the status of their application and updated information can be found on the official website, https://subhadra.odisha.gov.in/.
Overall, the event was a celebration of the positive impact this scheme has had on the lives of millions of women in Odisha. It is a testament to the government's commitment towards women empowerment and providing them with the necessary support and resources to thrive.
