Mahila Samridhi Yojana or Women Prosperity Scheme, this is the best-suited name for that scheme which is our today’s point of talk. Because this scheme actually brings prosperity in women’s lives. This happens because if women become financially strong then they will be more prosperous than ever.
Many schemes for women arrived and departed before this scheme. But in all of them a women’s family was also included, like the Ujjawala scheme. But this is the first scheme, at least in my point of view, in which a woman will get benefits for just herself, not for her entire family. So let’s take a look at this.
Introduction of the Mahila Samridhi Yojana 2024
Indian government started this scheme for the women of rural india. In this scheme any women above 18 from rural areas can open a savings account in the nearest post office. After that she has to deposit three hundred rupees annually in this account.
The notable thing here is that the amount does not exceed the 300 rupees. Government will give a massive amount of interest on this deposited amount which is 24% annually. This scheme was started way back on October 2nd 1993.
