The Odisha government has announced a major payout under the Mukhyamantri Subhadra Yojana, with over 4.57 lakh women beneficiaries set to receive ₹5,000 each through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) this week. The total disbursement amounts to nearly ₹250 crore, providing timely financial support to women across the state.
The update was shared by Deputy Chief Minister Pravati Parida during official briefings held on January 7 and 8, where she reaffirmed the government’s commitment that no eligible woman will be left out of the scheme.
