Pension or welfare benefit problem — I need help
A general pension or welfare complaint — we ask one question so you reach the right office.
Start here
Check the grant application status with the block social welfare office with your reference number, bank account and Aadhaar.
Who is responsible
Girl-child marriage and education grants are state benefits paid directly to the beneficiary account after verification at the block level, and the payment depends on the eligibility checks established by the scheme. Where the money has not come, the verification status on the scheme portal is what shows whether the application is still pending, was verified, or was returned for correction.
Important condition: Grant amounts and conditions are set by the current state scheme list and change from time to time; confirm before assuming a figure.
