Orunodoi Scheme | Assam Launches New Version Of Orunodoi Scheme, To Benefit 37 Lakh Women

Assam's flagship welfare programme, the Orunodoi Scheme, is set to include an additional 20 lakh beneficiaries, bringing the total coverage to 37 lakh people with the launch of Orunodoi 3.0 today.

The new phase of the scheme aims to transfer ₹1,250 directly into the bank accounts of 37 lakh women across the state. All beneficiaries will need to have both Aadhaar and ration cards.

The scheme seeks to ensure that politically connected households remain outside its ambit, with an effective grievance redressal mechanism in place.

The Food, Civil Supplies, and Consumer Affairs Department will be issuing National Food Security Cards to ensure the smooth implementation of Orunodoi 3.0.

Launched on October 2, 2020, the Orunodoi Scheme initially provided ₹830 to 19 lakh beneficiaries. The scheme has evolved, increasing support from ₹830 to ₹1,250 for 37 lakh women.
