Life Insurance Corporation of India has launched a special scheme for women called Bima Sakhi Yojana.
Under this scheme, women can earn up to ₹7,000 per month without investing any money. The main goal is to make women financially independent and increase awareness of life insurance in rural and remote areas.
This initiative is a big step toward women empowerment and self-reliance.
What is Bima Sakhi Yojana?
Bima Sakhi Yojana gives women a chance to work as LIC agents.
Selected women receive proper training and guidance to understand insurance products. After joining, they also start earning a fixed monthly amount along with additional commission opportunities.
The scheme helps women build a stable income while spreading awareness about insurance in their communities.

During this period, they will learn everything about insurance and customer handling. After completing the training, they will have to pass an exam.
