Bhubaneswar: The Women and Child Development Department has initiated comprehensive training programs at both the state and district levels to effectively implement the newly launched ‘Subhadra’ scheme. The program aims to ensure proper dissemination of information and smooth execution of the scheme from the highest level of state administration to grassroots workers.
After the release of the guidelines for the ‘Subhadra’ scheme, state-wide training sessions are being conducted to equip officials and workers with the necessary knowledge. These sessions cover the complete process of application and beneficiary selection, ensuring adherence to the scheme’s framework.
State Chief Administrative Secretary Mr. Manoj Ahuja, along with State Development Commissioner and Additional Chief Administrative Secretary Ms. Anu Garg, and Chief Administrative Secretary of the Women and Child Development Department Ms. Shubha Sharma, held discussions with district governors and the commissioners of various metropolitan corporations. Through a virtual platform, they provided directives on proper application handling, correct beneficiary identification, and the overall implementation of the ‘Subhadra’ scheme.
Ms. Monisha Banerjee, Director of the Department of Women and Child Development, along with the Director of ICDS and Social Welfare Department, spearheaded the training by educating departmental staff about the ‘Subhadra’ guidelines. The training sessions also included key personnel at the district level, such as District Social Welfare Officers, District Nutrition Coordinators, Mamata Project Coordinators, NOP Managers, and District Child Protection Officers.
Child Development Project Officers, ICDS Supervisors, aspirants, organizers, and assistants are being trained extensively, alongside Master Book Keepers (MBK) and Community Resource Persons (CRP). Employees working in facilities like Okak, the state’s call center (14678), My Service Centers, and General Service Centers are also undergoing training to ensure a unified understanding of the scheme.
The training covers essential aspects such as the selection of eligible beneficiaries according to the Subhadra guidelines, form distribution, e-KYC verification, and step-by-step guidance on the registration process. The aim is to ensure all stakeholders are well-versed in the proper functioning and implementation of the scheme.
Additionally, grassroots workers like Anganwadi workers, helpers, and ASHA workers are being sensitized through village-level programs, spreading awareness about the ‘Subhadra’ scheme. These efforts underscore the state’s commitment to the success of the ‘Subhadra’ scheme and its impact on the community.
