Bhubaneswar: Deputy Chief Minister Parvati Parida announced that the fourth phase of the first installment of the Subhadra Yojana will be credited to beneficiaries’ accounts through direct benefit transfer (DBT) on February 8. The distribution will take place at a special event in Jajpur.
Parida informed that beneficiaries who receive a phone call from their bank are required to visit their bank on February 3 and 4 to complete their e-KYC verification. Upon successful verification, they will receive their Subhadra money. If the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) clearance is completed on February 3 and 4, the number of beneficiaries is expected to reach 1 crore, she added.
“Those who will be deprived of the benefit in February are required to verify their data by March 8. Once verified, they will also receive their assistance,” Parida clarified.
The government aims to provide financial assistance to as many women as possible by March 8. So far, Subhadra money has been transferred to the bank accounts of 80 lakh women. The scheme, launched on September 17, 2024, has benefited many women, and applicants are eagerly awaiting the fourth phase of the first installment.
Additionally, the second installment of the Subhadra Yojana will be credited to the bank accounts of eligible women on March 8, coinciding with International Women’s Day.
