Lakhpati Didi Scheme launch date
Lakhpati Didi Scheme is a visionary idea by PM Narendra Modi. India is a country where women’s participation in cooperate firms has been very low since independence. Earlier women did housewife jobs but this could not add any impact on the Indian economy this led to a downgrade in our work productivity.
In 2014, PM Narendra Modi was elected as prime minister this way of thinking is changing rapidly. He announced this scheme at an independence speech on 15 August 2023 from Lal Kila. The implementation of this scheme is discussed in high-level meetings with different ministries, especially the Ministry of Women Development and the Ministry of MSMEs.
In October 2023, PM Modi ji attended a high-level meeting with other cabinet ministers to discuss this yojana and told Beurocreate to start drifting and publishing on the government site for public opinion. If any good opinion comes out then try to include it. As India’s growth story goes ahead the participation of women in every field is necessary. From this yojana, the government initially focused on drones for agriculture use and later on other sectors. Moreover, there are many schemes through which ones get the loan and start her own business.
The nodal scheme for the Lakhpati Didi Scheme is the Deendayal Antyodaya Yojana-National Rural Livelihoods Mission (DAY-NRLM). Note that this is not only a single scheme under DAY-NRLM. There are multiple Schemes under this mission as the government is keen to make an undertounced society by doing such things.
Earlier the goal of this Scheme was to train 2 crore women but now in this interim budget, the target increased to 3 crore. This will help women to become more self-dependant.
Lakhpati Didi Scheme – Drone training
Many women work in the farming sector in these SHGs (Self-help Group). So, the government decided to participate in these women in drone training i.e. 15000 out of 1 lakh participants. There is a huge subsidy given almost 90% of the total cost of the drone. The maximum limit of these drones can be 10 lakh Indian rupees. Apart from these drone trainees, women undergo training in the LED bulb-making process, plumbing, tailoring, weaving etc. are skill sets that one can get. As women start their training, the government will be making monitoring reports depending on the skill they learn.

On 23 December 2023, the new government of Rajasthan Bhajan lal Sharma decided to implement this scheme in the state (the first of this kind). The application form is not started due to the poll of conduct stated on 14th of March, 2023.
Lakhpati Baideo Scheme is a similar scheme in Assam. After the centre government, Assam Chief Minister Hemant Biswa Sharma also started a similar scheme for women’s self-help groups. This will aim for 40 Lakh women to earn at least rupees 1 lakh rupees and after the completion of this training, women get a 35,000 rupees loan to implement their skill set.
