Some 22 lakh beneficiaries of the Orunodoi scheme in Assam will get Rs. 18 extra for August to buy a National Flag or two.

The Assam government has been transferring Rs. 1,000 as monetary benefit to the bank accounts of economically weak women on the 10th of every month under the Orunodoi scheme.

“We shall be transferring Rs. 1,018 to the account of each of the Orunodoi beneficiaries for August so that they can buy the National Flags for gifting,” Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma said on Sunday.

The extra amount would enable each beneficiary to either buy a larger National Flag priced at Rs. 18 or two smaller ones of Rs. 9 each.

On Sunday, a fixed deposit certificate of Rs. 7.5 lakh each was handed over to eight children who lost both parents to COVID-19. Under the scheme Mukhya Mantrir Shishu Seva, Rs. 3,500 as interest on the deposit would be credited in the bank account of each child until they attain 24 years of age.
