Over 35.78L benefit from pension scheme for destitute widows
Lucknow: The state govt's pension scheme for destitute women is currently benefiting over 35.78 lakh recipients across Uttar Pradesh. In the first quarter of 2025–26, 47,800 new beneficiaries were added, with each receiving Rs 3,000 for the first three months of the year. "This payout was made to 35.78 lakh women between April and June this year—an increase of 47,800 from the last quarter of 2024–25," said a govt spokesperson. Of these, 28,56,821 beneficiaries are from rural areas, while 7,21,290 are from urban regions. Deputy director of the women welfare department and nodal officer of the pension scheme, BS Niranjan, said that the govt is focusing on including the maximum number of beneficiaries from rural and underdeveloped areas. Awareness campaigns are being conducted to ensure all eligible women are informed about the scheme and enrolled. Nodal officers have been appointed at the block and tehsil levels to simplify the application process, enabling the identification of 28,56,821 beneficiaries in rural areas. To avail of the scheme, a woman must be a permanent resident of Uttar Pradesh, above 18 years of age, and widowed. Additionally, her annual family income should not exceed Rs 2 lakh, and she must not be receiving a pension under any other central or state govt scheme.

State increases assistance for widows with children under 21
Panaji: A hiked monthly aid of Rs 4,000 for widows whose youngest child is below the age of 21 was announced by chief minister Pramod Sawant on Wednesday. This new scheme combines the benefits under the social welfare scheme for widows and the Griha Aadhar scheme for women from low-income families. The state came up with the scheme after many widows from needy families were adversely affected due to govt disallowing individuals from seeking benefits of dual govt schemes at a time. Sawant said that there are 36,000 widows in the state as per the data available with govt, and presently 2,049 have applied seeking govt aid. He urged others in need of financial assistance to come forward to avail of the benefit of Rs 4,000. 'Around 2,049 applications were pending for a year seeking the benefit under the DDSY scheme. We will now provide them all the backlog benefits from the date their applications were sanctioned. We will release it to their accounts within the next two days,' said Sawant. Henceforth, by only filing a single form seeking benefits under the social welfare scheme for widows, the beneficiaries will get the aid for widows of Rs 2,500 and Rs 1,500 meant for women, said the chief minister. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like These Are The Most Beautiful Women In The World Undo 'This widow pension will be on till the youngest child of the beneficiary is below 21 years. Even after the youngest child attains 21 years, the woman will continue to get the Rs 2,500 benefit. Many widows were not applying for the benefit because of the cumbersome application process at two places. Also, many feared that if they take the benefit of Griha Aadhar, their widow pension may stop. We have also increased the pension amount for widows from Rs 2,000 earlier to Rs 2,500,' Sawant said. He said that the pension amount will be released under the new scheme at the earliest by the govt to any eligible beneficiaries that apply. He said that the state has also already released the first instalment payable under the Atal Aasra.
