A very popular government program in Odisha, the Subhadra Yojana offers financial assistance to empower women. The scheme has been updated recently, and hence, there is a slight delay. Here is a detailed article covering the scheme, its latest developments, eligibility criteria, and the application process.
Knowing Subhadra Yojana
Launched by the Odisha government, the Subhadra Yojana aims at directly improving the economic security of the women through financial support. This is helping in raising the self-sufficiency of women and therefore the general welfare of the people. Already, more than 20 lakh women in Odisha are under this scheme wherein Rs. 5,000 is directly deposited in their bank accounts. This is an instance of commitment by the government to ensure women’s empowerment, for which it has provided over Rs. 1,000 crore to the program.
Recent Delayed Disbursements and Revision of the Time Scale
Though many women have gained from Subhadra Yojana, lately the disbursement has faced many delays. Funds were scheduled to be credited into accounts on December 25, 2024. This timeline is, however, now shifted ahead since verification process goes on as no direct misappropriation and incorrect application of the money should happen. The last date for submission of all documents is declared as 30th Dec 2024. So, once all the documents are submitted by that day, money will be received in beneficiary’s accounts from January 2025.
Eligibility Criteria and Application
