Provide financial assistance to elderly individuals facing financial difficulties.
NPP 2024Source manifesto
Why this status
Delivered substantially as promised. The 2025 Budget increased the monthly allowance for elderly people from Rs. 3,000 to Rs. 5,000 from April 2025, providing direct financial assistance to elderly recipients facing financial hardship. The assistance is welfare-targeted rather than universal, which is consistent with the pledge's focus on financial difficulty.
