On 17th February 2025, Finance Minister Shri Mohan Charan Majhi has presented Odisha Budget 2025-26. While delivering the budget speech, the hon’ble FM said “As an important step in the direction, Odisha Government has successfully implemented the historic and pathbreaking scheme for women’s empowerment: SUBHADRA. This is the largest scheme in the history of Odisha and is a testimony to our commitment to rewriting Odisha’s growth story with women occupying centrestage. We will give Rs. 50,000/- over a period of 5 years to all eligible women. This is the first time that more than 1.07 crore women stepped out of their homes to apply for a scheme in their own name and money has reached their individual bank account through DBT. So far more than 98 lakh women have received the 1st instalment of SUBHADRA and more than Rs. 4900 crore has been transferred to them. This has also transformed digital and financial inclusion of women. But we are not going to stop at financial assistance”.
Finance Minister added “In line with our vision of women led empowerment, our government is going to roll out the SUBHADRA PLUS umbrella scheme to take up new initiatives including Kishori Subhadra, Subhadra Sanchay, Subhadra Surakhya, Subhadra Sakhi, Subhadra Yatri, Subhadra Sangh (Subhadra Club), Kuha Subhadra (Call Centre), Subhadra Sahyogi, Subhadra Scholars, and Sujogya Subhadra, further enhancing the impact of SUBHADRA on the lives of my sisters in Odisha. I propose Rs. 10,145 crore for SUBHADRA and Rs. 153 crore under Subhadra Surakshya for ensuring safety and security of women in FY 2025-26”.
