Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Kanya Sumangla Yojana

Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Kanya Sumangla Yojana is a major welfare scheme for the development and education of girl children. The Government of Uttar Pradesh introduced the scheme on 01 April 2019. It aims to promote the health, education and social security of girls. The scheme also seeks to address social issues such as female foeticide, child marriage, gender discrimination and negative attitudes towards girls.

Under the Mukhyamantri Kanya Sumangla Yojana, an eligible girl child can receive financial assistance of up to Rs. 25,000/-. The assistance is provided in six stages. These stages cover important milestones from birth and full immunisation to school education and higher education. The current assistance includes Rs. 5,000/- at birth, Rs. 2,000/- after full immunisation, Rs. 3,000/- each on admission to Class 1 and Class 6, Rs. 5,000/- on admission to Class 9, and Rs. 7,000/- for eligible higher education admission.

The scheme is available to eligible families residing in Uttar Pradesh. The annual family income must not exceed Rs. 3 lakh. Normally, benefits are available for a maximum of two girl children in a family. The scheme also has special provisions for eligible cases involving twin girls and legally adopted orphan girl children. Each benefit stage has its own eligibility conditions related to birth, immunisation, school admission or higher education.

Applicants can apply for the Uttar Pradesh Kanya Sumangala Yojana through the official MKSY portal. They can also take assistance from an Anganwadi Centre or an authorised Jan Seva Kendra. The current application process requires details such as Aadhaar, Parivaar ID, bank account information and birth registration details.
