Application Review Process Through Stalin Camps
Special Stalin Camps were set up across Tamil Nadu to collect applications from women who were earlier left out of the scheme. These camps handled multiple government services in one place, including caste certificates, land ownership transfers, pensions, marriage support, and Aadhaar corrections.
Applications submitted at the Stalin camps were verified by the government and responses were given within 45 days. The government had already indicated that the first list of new beneficiaries would be released.
Government was aware that many eligible women were still waiting for their benefits because of some gaps in the whole process. But the government promised that all genuine applicants would be covered.
The decision to release the installment just before Diwali was to bring real happiness to Tamil Nadu's women, many of whom depend on this support.
