hi frndz,
recently India's Rural Development Ministry launched two new schemes-
INDIRA GANDHI NATIONAL WIDOW PENSION SCHEME(IGNWPS) and INDIRA GANDHI NATIONAL DISABILITY PENSION SCHEME(IGNDPS) have been launched on FEB 19, 2009.
IGNWPS - applicable for Widows in the age group of 40 to 64
IGNDPS - for those who have attained the age of 18 but are below 65 and below the poverty line.
the Center will provide Rs. 200/month, while States have been requested to contribute atleast a similar amount to beneficiaries, for a monthly assistance of Rs. 400.
so frndz, its a good step by our Gov. to help Widows and Disabled people. but Do you think Rs.200.Rs. 400 will be sufficient?
kindly reply/comment .....
