Assam Adopts BJP's Women-Centric Poll Strategy, Boosts Orunodoi Scheme

• Assam is implementing women-centric schemes, inspired by BJP's success in Maharashtra and Bihar, ahead of state Assembly polls.
• The 'Orunodoi' scheme is central to Assam's strategy, providing financial aid and a special 'Bohag Bihu' gift to 37 lakh women.
• Orunodoi 3.0 expands benefits to 44 lakh women, costing Rs 5,000 crore annually, aiming to empower women.
• Similar schemes like Bihar's Mukhyamantri Mahila Rojgar Yojana and MP's Ladli Behna scheme significantly influenced past election outcomes.
• Higher women voter turnout and decisive voting for NDA in Bihar, and BJP's wins in MP and Maharashtra, highlight the impact of such initiatives.

Why It Matters: Assam bets big on women-centric schemes to secure electoral victory, mirroring BJP's successful strategies.
