Kalyana Lakshmi Scheme
The Telangana government has introduced the Kalyana Lakshmi Scheme to extend a helping hand to parents facing financial constraints in organizing their daughters’ weddings. This initiative offers monetary assistance, providing up to Rs 1 lakh to parents dealing with financial challenges, with a specific focus on those belonging to the SC, ST, BC and EBC communities.
If you are a female on the verge of marriage and a permanent resident of Telangana, you are eligible to benefit from the Telangana Kalyana Lakshmi Scheme 2024. Tailored to assist females from the SC, ST, BC and EBC communities, the scheme aims to provide financial support, enabling them to embark on married life without imposing a financial burden on their parents.
The scheme, which initially offered benefits starting at 50,000, has gradually increased to 1 lakh over the years. In a recent development, the Telangana Government has indicated its intention to provide gold assistance in addition to the existing 1 lakh rupees for the girl’s family. However, this is yet to be officially confirmed.
