Registration for monthly honorarium to women will begin soon: Kejriwal

Saturday, 30 November 2024 | Staff Reporter | New Delhi

With months left before Delhi goes to the polls, AAP convenor Arvind Kejriwal on Friday said registration for providing Rs 1,000 monthly honorarium to women in the national capital will commence soon under the 'Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana'.

Talking about the scheme during a padayatra campaign of the AAP at Burari in north-east Delhi, the former Chief Minister said the applicant woman must be a registered voter of the national capital.

In its budget for Financial Year 2024-25 presented in March, the AAP government announced the 'Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana' which promises to provide Rs 1,000 per month to each eligible woman above 18 years with an outlay of Rs 2,000 crore.

"I am working for you... Rs 1,000 (per month) will be credited to your accounts soon. The registration process for the scheme will start very soon," Kejriwal told the women who gathered for the padayatra.

"There is only one condition. The applicant needs to be a registered voter in Delhi. Those who are not will be helped by the local MLA," he added. Attacking the BJP, the former Delhi chief minister said it has governments in 22 states, yet it is unable to provide free and uninterrupted electricity, good schools or quality healthcare to the people in any of those states.
