Odisha CM Announces Launch of 'Subhadra Yojana' and Jagannath Temple Treasury Inspection

Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi announced the rollout of the 'Subhadra Yojana' financial assistance scheme on September 17, coinciding with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday. The plan includes financial aid to women and an inspection of Lord Jagannath temple's treasury. The BJP government will also implement a comprehensive 100-day action plan.

Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Sunday confirmed that the 'Subhadra Yojana,' a financial assistance initiative, is set to launch on September 17, coinciding with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's birthday. Under this scheme, women in the state will receive cash vouchers of Rs 50,000.

Majhi also announced the imminent opening of the Ratna Bhandar, the treasury of the Lord Jagannath temple in Puri, to catalog its valuables. The BJP government has promised stern measures if any discrepancies are discovered. This issue has been a significant political topic during recent elections.

The BJP's 100-day action plan also includes creating a Rs 500 crore fund for the Puri Jagannath temple's administration and increasing the MSP for paddy procurement to Rs 3,100 per quintal from this Kharif season. These decisions mark the beginning of a series of welfare initiatives planned by the state government.
