AI SummaryMadhya Pradesh government continues to run Aahar Anudan Yojana for women from Baiga, Bharia, and Saharia tribal families. Under this scheme, eligible women can get ₹1,000 per month to help with food expenses and better nutrition.
As checked on 02 August 2026, no fresh public notice was found showing a revised benefit amount, closure, or replacement of the scheme.

Aahar Anudan Yojana details
Aahar Anudan Yojana is run in Madhya Pradesh for selected tribal communities. The earlier draft had the main scheme amount, but the direct portal links and some apply steps were outdated.
Current public documents still show ₹1,000 per month as the main cash support. No reliable 2026 source was found showing any increase, cut, or new replacement scheme for this benefit.
Women from Baiga, Bharia, and Saharia communities in Madhya Pradesh are the main group covered in public scheme material. Family conditions shown in the available material include not having a government employee or income tax payer in the immediate family.

How to apply
Direct old MPTAAS links are not working in a live check, so it is better to start with the current government references and then follow the department route shown in the user manual.
STEP 1 Open the MP Government Schemes Directory and the Aahar Anudan Yojana user manual. This gives the current department reference and the MPTAAS workflow connected with the scheme.
STEP 2 Keep Aadhaar card, bank passbook, caste or sub-tribe proof, residence proof, photo, and family declaration ready. Public material shows that bank details and caste details are checked before approval.
STEP 3 Start the beneficiary entry or checking process through the department route linked with MPTAAS. Since the old direct registration page is returning 404, applicants should not depend on old bookmarked URLs shared on other websites.
STEP 4 Complete the required details and wait for checking at Janpad Panchayat or district level as shown in the department manual. Payment is processed after approval in the scheme workflow.
