Magalir Urimai Thogai scheme will benefit generations, says CM Stalin

Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Saturday said the Magalir Urimai Thogai scheme, which is to be launched on July 24, would usher in a change not only in one generation, but generations to come.

He will inaugurate the scheme in Dharmapuri district, where the self-help group for women was launched in 1989 by the DMK government, then headed by late Chief Minister Karunanidhi. “In the cabinet meeting, I advised Ministers to visit camps being organised across the State,” Mr. Stalin has tweeted. 

He said that the scheme was likely to make a leap forward in the welfare schemes. “I am obsessed with the scheme. I want all women eligible to get assistance under the scheme to benefit from it,” he said.
