The Mukhya Mantri Mahila Rozgar Yojana aims to economically empower women in Bihar by providing ₹10,000 each to 75 lakh beneficiaries through Direct Benefit Transfer. Scheduled for September 26, 2025, the initiative targets women from economically weaker sections, enabling them to start micro-enterprises such as tailoring units, shops, or agriculture-related activities. A follow-up grant of ₹2 lakh is available after a six-month performance review. Managed by the Rural and Urban Development Departments and leveraging the Jeevika Self-Help Group network, the scheme supports self-employment, financial inclusion, and women’s entrepreneurship, while also aligning with Bihar’s socio-economic development and pre-election priorities.
