Lucknow, May 8 -- The Old Age Pension Scheme being implemented under the guidance of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has emerged as a major relief for lakhs of elderly women in Uttar Pradesh.
At present, the state government is providing old-age pension benefits to 2,923,364 elderly women across the state. For economically weak and destitute women, the scheme has become a strong support system in their lives.
Under the Yogi Government, financial assistance of Rs 1,000 per month is being provided. Through DBT, Rs 3,000 is directly transferred to beneficiaries' bank accounts every quarter. Regular pension payments are not only helping them meet their daily needs but are also strengthening their sense of self-respect and self-reliance.
