Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren transferred Rs 1,415.44 crore to 56.61 lakh women under the 'Maiyan Samman Yojana'. The initiative, launched last year, initially provided Rs 1,000 to women aged 18-50. The ruling alliance promised to increase the monthly honorarium to Rs 2,500 from December 2024. This has been credited for political success in Jharkhand.
