Do you know how many and which schemes the Modi government is implementing for women's empowerment and self-reliance, which have enriched the lives of millions of women? Let us tell you...
Udaan Scheme for Daughters
The "CBSE Udaan Scheme" was launched in 2014, shortly after PM Modi came to power. The primary objective of this scheme is to address the low enrolment of female students in prestigious engineering institutions and to bridge the learning gap between school education and engineering entrance exams.
Under this scheme, female students are provided free offline/online resources through virtual classes and study materials while studying in grades 11 and 12 to prepare for entrance exams at various leading engineering colleges in the country.
The "Beti Bachao Beti Padhao Abhiyaan" is a nationwide initiative of the Modi government, aimed at eliminating discrimination against girls, improving the sex ratio, and ensuring girls' education. This scheme was launched on January 22, 2015.
Stand-Up India for Women Entrepreneurs
This is a key scheme launched by the Ministry of Finance under the Modi government to provide financial assistance to Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribe and/or women entrepreneurs. This scheme provides bank loans to women to set up enterprises in manufacturing, services, trading, and agriculture. The objective of this scheme is to provide bank loans between ₹10 lakh and ₹1 crore to women entrepreneurs from the Scheduled Castes and the Scheduled Tribes.
Lakhpati Didi Yojana: Launched on August 15, 2023, the Lakhpati Didi Yojana is an initiative to economically empower women in rural India. Under this scheme, the government is providing opportunities to women living in rural and urban areas to start their own businesses and earn a good income.
Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana for Millions of Mothers
Prime Minister Narendra Modi's scheme has greatly benefited millions of women across the country, especially those living in rural areas. Under the scheme, free LPG cylinders and connections were provided to poor and rural families. This benefit freed women from the traditional use of stoves in villages. Under this scheme, BPL families receive a free gas connection and 12 subsidized cylinders. So far, more than 100 million people have benefited from this scheme.
In addition, there are several important schemes of the Modi government that women are benefiting from, both directly and indirectly. These include the PM Garib Kalyan Anna Yojana, PM Awas Yojana, Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana, and Ayushman Bharat Yojana.
