69,000 Government Jobs and ₹2 Lakh for Women Entrepreneurs: Bihar’s Mega Employment Push

Will Every Hand Get Work? Nitish Govt Pushes Dual Strategy for Jobs and Self-Employment
Indian Masterminds Stories

Patna: The Nitish Kumar-led Bihar government is intensifying efforts to achieve its ambitious vision of “Har Haath Ko Kaam” (Employment for Every Hand). From direct financial support for women entrepreneurs to massive government recruitment drives, the administration is launching dual strategies to combat unemployment and empower citizens.

New Hope for Women: Chief Minister Women’s Employment Scheme

In a significant step toward women’s economic empowerment, the Bihar government recently launched the Mukhyamantri Mahila Udyami Yojana (Chief Minister Women’s Employment Scheme).

Under the scheme, ₹10,000 is being directly transferred to the bank account of one woman from each eligible family.

After successfully running a business for six months, women entrepreneurs can receive additional assistance of up to ₹2 lakh.

This initiative is designed not only to make women financially independent but also to boost family incomes and encourage grassroots entrepreneurship across both rural and urban Bihar.

Accessible to All: Easy Application Process

To ensure wide participation, the application process is both online and offline. Key eligibility criteria include:

  • Permanent residency in Bihar
  • Minimum age of 18
  • Must be a member of a livelihood/self-help group

This inclusive model ensures that women from even the most remote areas can benefit from the program.

Massive Government Job Recruitment Drive Underway

Parallel to self-employment support, the government has launched a large-scale recruitment campaign to fill 69,430 vacant positions across various departments, including:

  • Education: 935 teacher and AEDO positions filled
  • Police: Ongoing recruitment of constables and sub-inspectors
  • Health, Electricity, Urban Development, Agriculture, Panchayati Raj: Thousands of openings
  • Urban Development & Housing: Over 250 posts, including legal assistants and planning officers

The government’s long-term vision includes creating 1.2 million government jobs by 2030, and employment opportunities for 10 million youth over the next five years.

Women + Youth = A Dual Strategy for Empowerment

These twin efforts signal a strategic shift in Bihar’s employment policy. While the Women’s Employment Scheme fosters entrepreneurship and economic self-reliance, the government job drive offers secure, formal employment to educated youth.

This approach balances immediate financial relief with long-term employment growth, aimed at transforming Bihar’s economic landscape.

Government Cautions Against Fraud

Officials have urged citizens to be cautious of fraudulent agents or websites claiming to offer jobs or application services. Only authorized government portals and groups should be used for registration and verification.

Conclusion: A Roadmap to a Self-Reliant Bihar

Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s focus on both self-employment and formal government jobs marks a serious attempt to reshape Bihar’s socio-economic future.

The promise of “employment for every hand” is more than a slogan—it’s becoming a structured and targeted movement aimed at reducing unemployment, empowering women, and creating a more inclusive and resilient economy.
