  • The Ujjwala scheme was launched by the Centre government to combat the diseases caused by smoking. In addition, the Himachal government launched the Grihini Suvidha Yojana in order to benefit an increasing number of women through the scheme.

  • Mukhyamantri Grihini Suvidha Yojana was launched on 26 May 2018.
