The flagship scheme for welfare of women in Odisha will be implemented from 2024-25 to 2028-29 financial years. An outlay of Rs 55,825 crore has been made for this initiative. All eligible women of 21-60 age group in a family will get the benefit. Those getting widow pension and scholarship from the government will also get the assistance. However, women, who receive Rs 1,500 or more per month or Rs 18,000 or more per year from any other government scheme, will not be eligible for Subhadra Yojana. In the event of the beneficiary’s death, aid will be withdrawn, and family members will be unable to request it.
The money will be credited to the bank accounts of the beneficiaries on the occasion of Rakshya Bandhan and on International Women’s Day (March 8). They will get Rs 50,000 in five years under Subhadra Yojana.
