The government has launched several schemes (Government Scheme) for the empowerment of women in the country. Many initiatives have been taken by both the center and the state. Just like the West Bengal government has started Lakshmir Bhandar, Kanyashree. Similarly, the center has also brought several schemes.

One such project will be discussed today.

Great project (Government Scheme) of the center for women!

The central government brought a scheme in 2023 to empower women. That project is called Namo Drone Didi Yojana. Through this, the government trains women in drone technology and encourages them to use that technology in agriculture. Now the question is, which women can apply for this central scheme?

It is known that under the Namo Drone Didi Yojana, the government trains 15,000 women associated with women’s self-help groups to operate drones. This training is given so that they can use drones to monitor crops, spray fertilizers and pesticides in agriculture. This project has been implemented across the country through the Krishi Vigyan Kendra.

Under the Namo Drone Didi Yojana, selected women are given 15 days of training. However, only women associated with self-help groups can apply for this scheme. In addition, the age of the applicant woman should be between 18 and 45 years.

According to the report, the central government has allocated a budget of Rs 1261 crore for this scheme. However, a separate portal or website has not been launched to apply for this scheme so far. As a result, women wishing to apply for the Namo Drone Didi Yojana will first have to join a women’s self-help group. Then from there, they will have to apply for this scheme offline.
