West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has launched the Shramshree scheme, aimed at supporting Bengali migrant workers who have returned home after facing alleged harassment and discrimination in other states for speaking their mother tongue. Under this scheme, each returning worker will receive financial assistance of ₹5,000 per month for up to a year, or until they find new employment in Bengal. In addition, the state government has directed that every cinema hall and multiplex must regularly screen at least one Bengali film on each screen, to promote regional culture and cinema.
