Maiya Samman Yojana cash transfer raised to Rs 2,500/month for women

The Mukhyamantri Maiya Samman Yojana was launched in August 2024 paying Rs 1,000/month to women aged 18-50; the government raised the amount to Rs 2,500/month from 28 December 2024, fulfilling the poll guarantee, with funds credited at a Ranchi (Namkum) event.

Delivered Since 2024

200 units per month free electricity for domestic consumers

The state cabinet on 28-29 June 2024 raised the free electricity entitlement from 125 to 200 units per month under the Mukhyamantri Urja Khushhali Yojana; Cabinet Secretary stated around 41.4 lakh consumers would benefit, with extra monthly outgo of about Rs 21.7 crore.

In progress Since 2024

10 lakh (one million) jobs for youth over five years

The government has held large recruitment drives - including 8,792 appointment letters in a single day (28 Nov 2025) and ~1,900 JSSC CGL letters in Dec 2025, with the CM citing about 16,000 government jobs in the first year - but this is a small fraction of the 10 lakh five-year target, and an opposition tally put formal appointments at 1,556 in the first nine months.

In progress Since 2023

Housing for the poor - 8 lakh homes under Abua Awas Yojana

The state-funded Abua Awas Yojana provides a roughly Rs 2 lakh grant for a three-room pucca house, with a target of 8 lakh homes (about Rs 16,320 crore) built in phases through 31 March 2026; the JMM government has continued phased construction after re-election but full completion against the target was still in progress.
