PM Modi had started a scheme called Ujjwala scheme which provided 4 crore families with free LPG connections, since its launch in Ballia in UP in 2016.
PM Modi has stated that the scheme was inspired by Premchand’s Hamid who buys tongs for his grandmother, so that she doesn’t get burnt while making rotis.
The scheme is to help ease the life of an everyday homemaker, by reducing on the toxic smoke through usage of cleaner fuel.
The PM states that now women have a greater opportunity to earn extra income, as the time spent on cooking has been reduced.
The PM has stated that nearly 10 crore new LPG connections have been issued in India since 2014, which the previous government could not do, which has helped a lot of women from different walks of life all over India.
