Rs.1,665 crore disbursed under welfare schemes
Chandigarh, April 11 -- Haryana chief minister Nayab Saini on Friday disbursed about Rs.1,665 crore directly into the bank accounts of beneficiaries under 18 different government schemes.
Addressing a press conference, the chief minister said the sixth installment of Lado Lakshmi Yojana was also released with transfer of about Rs.203 crore to 9.68 lakh women beneficiaries.

A budgetary provision of Rs.6,500 crore has been made for the scheme in 2026-27 budget, he said.
According to Saini, a sum about Rs.1,144 crore was also directly transferred to 35.55 lakh beneficiaries under 15 social security pension schemes. These included old-age pension, disability pension, and other welfare pensions.

However, now the state government has adopted a pro-active governance model, wherein eligibility is automatically determined through the Parivar Pehchan Patra database. This has eliminated the need for applications and office visits, enabling citizens to receive benefits seamlessly at their doorstep, Saini said. The CM said that under the Dayalu Scheme, financial assistance of Rs.298.07 crore was provided to 7,875 families.
