AAP launches registration drive for women's allowance scheme in Delhi
Hindustan TimesThe Aam Aadmi Party on Monday launched the registration drive for the “Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana”, under which women will receive monthly aid of ₹2,100, and “Sanjeevani Yojana”, which will provide free health care to senior citizens, with AAP national convener Arvind Kejriwal and chief minister Atishi undertaking registrations at East Kidwai Nagar around noon. Kejriwal said, “From today, the registration for the ‘Mahila Samman Yojana’ and ‘Sanjeevani Yojana’ has started across Delhi. Later in the evening, Kejriwal and Atishi launched the registration for the health care scheme and issued “Kavach” cards—blue cards in the shape of a visiting card—to senior citizens. “People want government to stop spreading confusion and clarify how they will provide a ₹2,100 monthly honorarium when their Punjab government has not provided it since 2022.” Discussing the Sanjeevani Yojana scheme, Delhi BJP spokesperson Praveen Shankar Kapoor accused Kejriwal of betraying the elderly population.
