Former Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Thursday announced that Rs 1,000 will be deposited into the accounts of every woman above the age of 18 in the national capital.
According to this welfare programme, women in Delhi will initially receive a monthly stipend of Rs 1000 from the government. The amount will be raised to Rs 2100 per month following the Delhi Assembly elections.
The announcement comes ahead of the 2025 Delhi Assembly polls, with the ruling Aam Aadmi Party eyeing to retain power for a third term.
