**Ujjwala Yojana** (Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana - PMUY) is a flagship welfare scheme launched by the Government of India in 2016 to provide free liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) connections to women from below the poverty line (BPL) households to empower them socially and economically by ensuring access to clean cooking fuel, replacing the traditional use of firewood and kerosene, which not only reduces the health risks associated with indoor air pollution but also promotes gender equality, energy access, and environmental sustainability, with the ultimate goal of improving the quality of life for millions of families across India. The scheme aims to distribute 8 crore LPG connections, especially targeting rural and underprivileged women, with a focus on marginalized communities. It is part of the government's broader efforts to increase access to modern cooking fuels, reduce reliance on solid fuels, and support the development of cleaner, more sustainable energy sources in India's energy mix.
