This proactive announcement comes amidst a comprehensive state-wide exercise to verify and finalize the list of recipients. The government is taking meticulous steps to ensure that no deserving individual is left out of the scheme's benefits.
"A thorough process is underway to include all previously omitted beneficiaries," Parida said. "We are cross-verifying data across departments to create a flawless list. A major decision regarding the inclusion of these beneficiaries is expected soon."
To ensure accuracy and eliminate errors, the Women and Child Development Department, which is overseeing the scheme, has requested crucial data from several key government departments. This inter-departmental coordination is a cornerstone of the government's effort to create a transparent and error-free beneficiary list.
The Health Department has received a request to verify and provide the list of deceased individuals to clean the existing records. Simultaneously, the Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare Department is compiling data related to paddy sales, which often serves as a key identifier for beneficiary eligibility in welfare schemes. 


Furthermore, the Commerce and Transport Department has been asked to provide data related to four-wheeled vehicles. This step is likely part of the government's effort to apply eligibility criteria that may exclude individuals with certain asset levels, ensuring funds reach the most needy sections of society.
The Subhadra Yojana is a flagship welfare initiative of the Odisha government, designed to provide direct financial assistance to support women and families across the state. This latest announcement of disbursing two installments at once is expected to provide a significant economic boost to lakhs of households, enhancing their purchasing power and contributing to their overall financial stability.
