Bihar Women Employment Scheme 2025: Missed ₹10,000 Payment? Here's How to Check Status and File a Complaint

The Bihar Mahila Rojgar Yojana 2025 has been launched to empower women across the state by providing direct financial assistance to their bank accounts. Under this scheme, the first installment of ₹10,000 was released on Friday, September 26, 2025, jointly by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. The funds were transferred to the accounts of nearly 75 lakh women beneficiaries

The scheme aims to provide financial support of up to ₹2 lakh in two phases, helping women start or expand small businesses and achieve self-reliance. However, many applicants have raised concerns that despite registering for the scheme, the first installment has not yet reflected in their accounts. If you are one of them, there’s no need to panic. The government has provided clear steps to check your payment status and register complaints if necessary.
