Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini has directly transferred Rs 144.73 crore into the bank accounts of 3,882 beneficiaries under the Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Antyodaya Parivar Suraksha Yojana (DAYALU-I).

The scheme seeks to support those facing financial hardships due to the death or permanent disability of a family member.

Sharing this information here today, an official spokesperson said since the scheme’s inception, Rs 763.69 crore had been disbursed to 20,399 eligible families, who applied through the portal, from April 1, 2023, to June 30, 2024. The amount was being directly transferred into their Aadhaar-seeded bank accounts through the National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI) platform.

The DAYALU-I scheme provided financial assistance to families with an annual income of less than Rs 1.80 lakh, as verified through the Family Information Data Repository (FIDR).

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
