Maiya Samman Yojana: Women to Get Rs 2,500 Aid Before Holi — Check Eligibility List

Maiya Samman Yojana: The Jharkhand government has kicked off the Mukhyamantri Maiya Samman Yojana to help women become financially independent and strong. Through this initiative, eligible women in the state receive a monthly financial aid of Rs. 2500 directly deposited into their bank accounts. The government is set to take a significant step to enhance the financial stability of women beneficiaries under this scheme. Over 51 lakh women enrolled in the program will now have access to loans of up to Rs. 20 thousand from banks without needing any collateral.

As per media reports, a meeting has already been held between the State Level Bankers Committee (SLBC) and the state government, where this proposal was approved. Women aged 18 to 50 will be able to secure loans to kickstart small businesses without any guarantees. The loan repayments will be deducted from the monthly Rs. 2,500 that the women receive.

Women will receive Rs 2500 before Holi

The next payment of the Mukhyamantri Maiya Samman Yojana will be credited to the accounts of female beneficiaries ahead of Holi, as announced by Scheduled Tribe, Scheduled Caste, and Backward Class Welfare Minister Chamara Linda. He also mentioned that some ineligible women have signed up for the scheme, and efforts are underway to identify and remove them from the list. Beneficiary women who missed the previous payment will get a transfer of Rs 5,000 covering both installments.

Understanding the Mainiyan Samman Yojana

The Maiyaan Samman Yojana is a unique initiative by the Jharkhand government aimed at providing financial support to women. Its goal is to empower women financially, boost their involvement in family and society, and promote self-reliance. Launched in 2024 by the Hemant Soren government, the scheme offers eligible women Rs 2,500 monthly directly into their bank accounts. Election analysts believe this initiative significantly contributed to the JMM alliance’s overwhelming victory in the 2024 elections.

How to make the most of the Mainiyan Samman Yojana?

To take advantage of the Maiyaan Samman Yojana, all eligible women need to complete their Aadhaar seeding. This process involves linking your bank account to your Aadhaar. You can fill out the Aadhaar seeding form at your bank. Additionally, camps are being set up at the Gram Panchayat level. E-KYC is also necessary to benefit from the Maiyaan Samman Yojana. If you haven’t finished your e-KYC yet, please do it soon. Without e-KYC, the funds from the scheme will not be deposited into your account.

Only these women will receive funds in their accounts.

Only women who are residents of Jharkhand will be eligible for the Maiya Samman Yojana.

To qualify, women must be over 18 years old and under 50 years old.
