Even after being included in the scheme's promotional leaflet, married woman Junu Boro claimed she was excluded from the state government's ambitious "Orunodoi" project.

Digital Desk: The state government of Assam has been implementing various schemes to help those who are in need at various times. However, after persistently pursuing the initiatives, a few poor people have expressed dissatisfaction over not receiving them. The strange actions of the Assam state government have surprised a woman from Bahjani village, which is under the 5 No. Uttar Pachim Gaon Panchayat of the Bongaon Development block from the 28 No. Boko-Chaygaon LAC in Kamrup district. 
 
Even after being included in the scheme's promotional leaflet, married woman Junu Boro claimed she was excluded from the state government's ambitious "Orunodoi" project. The government's cover photo for the Orunodoi plan has left the couple stunned.

It should be noted that on October 2, 2020, the state administration of Assam unveiled an ambitious program for women living in poverty. Under the Orunodoi Scheme, the Assamese government provides qualifying state resident households with approximately Rs 1000 per month to help them buy basic food items.

Additionally, Junu Boro claimed that despite her three applications, she was not selected for any of the Orunodai Schemes. However, the scheme already helps the women who live nearby in the same community. In response to a question regarding her picture on the plan promotional booklet, she said that she had learned about it for the first time from friends in the market and then checked the leaflet herself. She added that while she is in the market, various people occasionally snap pictures of her.

Since the images have been released, the couple has appealed Himanta Biswa Sharma, the chief minister of Assam, to grant the benefits of the Orunodoi scheme. In order to sustain her impoverished family, Junu Boro—who is still denied government housing—told the media that she has been selling vegetables in the Bamunigaon market three days a week. 
 
When Chiranjit Das, the Chaygaon circle office's circle officer, was asked about the issue, he responded that he didn't have any knowledge of the matter. He did, however, promise that he would speak with the Bongaon Development Block Officer about the situation and that the family will soon be able to take advantage of the scheme.
