The central government, along with various state governments, runs many important schemes for the welfare of women. Uttar Pradesh has a higher number of women compared to other states in the country. The Uttar Pradesh government, led by Yogi Adityanath, runs several welfare schemes for women.

Now, the Uttar Pradesh government is offering free scooters to women in the state under the Rani Lakshmibai Scooty Yojana. Let’s find out which women are eligible for this scheme and how they can benefit from it.
