Himachal Pradesh government's Mukhyamantri Sahara Yojana is now accepting online applications through the Him Parivar e-Kalyan portal. Under this scheme, poor families get ₹3,000 per month for treatment of serious and long-term illnesses like cancer, paralysis, heart disease, hemophilia, thalassemia and chronic kidney failure.
The scheme was earlier run by the Health & Family Welfare Department, but now the Social Justice & Empowerment Department (ESOMSA) handles it. The whole process, from application to payment, has been made fully online. As of August 2026, the department has received 1,562 online applications under the new system.
Mukhyamantri Sahara Yojana 2026 Complete Details
Mukhyamantri Sahara Yojana was announced in the Himachal Pradesh Budget 2019-20 to help people who face money problems during long treatment of chronic diseases. The scheme gives ₹3,000 per month to patients from economically weaker sections (EWS). Patients suffering from specified diseases such as Parkinson, malignant cancer, paralysis, muscular dystrophy, hemophilia and thalassemia are covered. People with chronic renal failure or any other illness that makes them permanently unable to work are also eligible.
For the April to June 2026 period, the government has released the support amount to 3,813 Aadhaar-verified active eligible beneficiaries. About 91 beneficiaries have not yet completed their e-KYC verification, so their payment is pending. Once they finish e-KYC, the district welfare officer will release their amount.
