In the Yogi government of Uttar Pradesh, the Chief Minister is preparing for financial help to poor daughters of backward classes on the lines of mass marriage scheme. So far, only 20 thousand rupees are available in the marriage grant scheme of the Backward Classes Welfare Department, while the government gives 60 thousand rupees to the bride’s account in the Chief Minister’s Group Marriage Scheme. Now the Backward Classes Welfare Department has prepared a plan in this equal form.
The objective of this scheme is to arrange for the marriage of daughters of OBC poor families. Soon such families will be identified and benefited.
Backward poor families will get benefit
Minister of State for Backward Classes Welfare (Independent Charge) Narendra Kashyap said that now a proposal has been made to increase the grant to 60 thousand rupees, which will benefit the poor families of backward classes. Our government is helping the poor and backward.
Two daughters get help in marriage
The Backward Classes Welfare Department is operating the wedding grant scheme for daughters of poor families of other backward classes (except minority backward classes). In this, an amount of 20 thousand rupees is given as a grant on the marriage of the adult daughters of families with income up to Rs 1 lakh per year. Under the scheme, a grant is given for the marriage of a maximum of two daughters of a family. Income certificate is mandatory for application. At the same time, destitute women or widow women applicants are given preference and they do not require income certificate.
