Guwahati: In a significant push toward inclusive development and financial empowerment, Assam Chief Minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarma announced the launch of #Orunodoi 3.0, the state’s largest direct benefit transfer scheme to date.
Taking to social media, the CM shared: “We will be launching #Orunodoi3.0 Assam’s biggest effort to assist our poor families to live a life of dignity.”
Under this renewed phase of the Orunodoi scheme, more than 38 lakh eligible families will receive a monthly financial support of ₹1,250 directly in their bank accounts. The scheme prioritizes women as heads of the household, promoting both gender equity and economic resilience.
Launched in 2020, the Orunodoi scheme has been a cornerstone of the Assam government’s welfare architecture, aimed at supporting low-income families in meeting essential needs like food, medicines, and utility expenses.
With the new phase, the government has expanded coverage and strengthened its delivery mechanisms to ensure transparency, accountability, and last-mile reach.
#Orunodoi3.0 reflects the Assam government’s vision of a self-reliant and compassionate welfare state, where dignity is not a privilege but a right and where every rupee reaches the right hands.
