Grilakshmi Yojana, one of the most important election slogans of the Congress, will be launched from today. Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar will start the process of accepting applications at the banquet hall of Vidhana Soudha today at 5 pm.
This is an important scheme to deposit 2000 rupees every month in the house owner bank account of BPL, APL and Antyodaya families. Although the Grilahakshmi Yojana was supposed to be launched in the month of June itself, the Grilahakshmi Yojana was postponed after many confusions arose in the registration of the Griha Jyoti Yojana.
Minister of Women and Child Welfare Lakshmi Hebbalkar said that without creating any confusion, the benefits of the scheme have been made available only to the eligible beneficiaries. He said that if the application is submitted in July, the money will be deposited in the account from August 17 or 18.
Eligibility to be the beneficiaries of the scheme
The government said in a circular that the scheme will be applicable to women who are mentioned as housewives in BPL, APL and Antyodaya ration cards. Household owner or owner’s husband is not eligible for this scheme if he is an income tax payer. Employer or husband filing GST returns cannot avail this scheme.
Documents required to apply
Ration card number, Aadhaar card number of the landlady and landlady’s husband. Bank account passbook linked to Jajamani Aadhaar or alternate bank account details preferred by the beneficiary.
