Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Stalin actively consulting for the implementation of the Rs 1,000 scheme under the artist’s royalty scheme
CHENNAI: Chief Minister Stalin is taking serious measures to ensure the proper implementation of the Rs 1,000 scheme under the artist’s royalty scheme, according to sources from Fort. This scheme, which aims to provide financial assistance to the head of families, was announced by Chief Minister Stalin and is set to begin on Anna’s birthday on September 15th.
In recent notifications, the Tamil Nadu government has published various rules and regulations regarding the scheme. The project has garnered attention and is being hailed as a significant example for other states at the national level. The scheme played a crucial role in Congress’ recent victory in Himachal Pradesh, as it was one of DMK’s key promises.
The scheme also attracted women voters, as Congress leader Priyanka announced a promise of giving 1500 rupees to women every month under the Har Ghar Laxmi Campaign. This pledge became a decisive factor in winning the support of women voters.
Following the success of similar schemes in other states, such as Karnataka, where the Congress announced a 2 thousand rupee scheme, Tamil Nadu is now compelled to implement it effectively. Chief Minister Stalin is actively consulting on the matter and has issued orders to ensure the following:
– Eligible women should not be deprived of funds for any reason.
– The target of 1 crore beneficiaries must be reached.
– Proper explanations should be given to women who are not eligible.
– No malpractices or mistakes should occur in purchasing bank accounts.
– Prompt responses should be given to appeals after the rejection of applications.
– Women should be guided in other tasks related to filling out the application.
– There should be no political interference in the selection of beneficiaries.
Chief Minister Stalin believes that India should set an example by providing proper support through this scheme. Furthermore, there is a possibility of making this a national promise in the next Lok Sabha elections, and Stalin hopes to guide Congress in that direction.
However, there are some challenges in implementing the scheme. Some households have multiple women above 21 years of age, leading to confusion regarding who should be considered the head of the family. The Tamil Nadu government has clarified that only one person can be chosen if there are multiple eligible females in a family. If all of them are married, separate ration cards are required to receive individual payments.
Additionally, the Tamil Nadu government has provided details on who is considered eligible to benefit from the scheme. This includes the woman mentioned as the head of the family in the family card, as well as unmarried single women, maids, and transgenders. This aspect has been widely praised as a significant step towards social justice, as it recognizes the diverse household structures in society.
Overall, the implementation of the Rs 1,000 scheme under the artist’s royalty scheme in Tamil Nadu is garnering attention and being closely monitored. Chief Minister Stalin’s efforts to ensure its success demonstrate the government’s commitment to supporting families in need.
