As per the announcement made by the CM Soren on Friday,his government will give  dhotis or lungis, and sarees to all families in the state living below the poverty line twice a year at a subsidised rate of ₹ 10.

All eligible householders of the state covered by the National Food Security Act and those families eligble under the Antyodaya Anna Yojana will be provided  the clothes at an interval of six months, according to the Chief Minister's Office.

The clothes are planned to be distributed at a subsidised rate of ₹ 10 per dhoti/lungi and ₹ 10 per saree.In the current fiscal(2020-21),the clothes will be distributed once.
