PM Ujjwala Yojana is a flagship government scheme that offers free LPG connections to women from below-poverty-line households. Launched in 2016, it promotes clean cooking by replacing traditional fuels like wood and coal. By reducing indoor air pollution, PM Ujjwala Yojana improves health outcomes and empowers women across rural India. While over 9 crore connections have been distributed, challenges persist in ensuring regular refills and sustained usage of clean fuel.
