Mahila Rozgar Yojana: Sometimes, even a small amount of support can give direction to big dreams. Especially for women who aspire to do something on their own, but lack of financial support hinders them. For such strong-willed women, the Bihar government has launched the Mahila Rojgar Yojana, under which financial assistance is provided to women to start their own businesses.

Thousands of women in rural areas have been given the first installment of ₹10,000, and now a wave of hope has spread among women in urban areas as well. Everyone wants to know when this amount will reach their accounts and how the verification process will be completed. Let’s learn the full details in simple and easy language.

What is the Mahila Rojgar Yojana?

This scheme is a financial assistance scheme run by the state government, providing ₹10,000 to women in both urban and rural areas. Its objective is to enable women to start their own small businesses and become self-reliant.

The special feature of this scheme is that it requires women to be associated with a livelihood group. Women who are already enrolled can apply directly. Those who are not enrolled can benefit from this scheme by joining a group before applying.

When will women in urban areas receive the money?

Applications for the Women’s Employment Scheme are accepted online in urban areas. So far, approximately 1.3 million women have applied. Verification of all these applications will begin soon.

As soon as the verification process is complete, women will be linked to the Jeevika group. An amount of ₹10,000 will then be transferred directly to their bank accounts. This process will proceed in a phased manner, and all eligible women will be provided benefits.

Mahila Rozgar Yojana: How will the verification be done?

Jeevika has developed a special app to make the verification process easy and transparent. The verification report will be submitted on this app.

The documents and information of all applicants will be verified through municipal bodies. The funds will be transferred to their accounts only after the verification is complete.

Applications will only be accepted from women who are either already part of a group or have joined one before applying.
