Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched Ujjwala Yojana 2.0 on August 10, 2021 to provide deposit-free LPG connections to low-income families. Ujjwala is a scheme that provides LPG connections to low-income households to promote clean cooking fuel and reduce indoor air pollution. It aims to give the first refill and hotplate free of cost to beneficiaries, with minimal paperwork requirements. Key beneficiaries include SC/ST households, forest dwellers, tea garden tribes, and those residing in islands or river islands.
