Ujjwala Yojana

Ujjwala Yojana is an Indian government scheme that provides free LPG (liquefied petroleum gas) connections to households below a certain income level. Its goal is to reduce indoor air pollution caused by traditional cooking methods like firewood and promote cleaner, safer cooking practices. By ensuring access to LPG, the scheme also supports women’s health and encourages environmental sustainability. Beneficiaries receive the connection along with initial gas cylinders, making it easier for them to adopt modern cooking fuel and improve overall living conditions.
