Bhattacharya also noted that the instalments for December and January will be disbursed together. “We had pledged to increase the amount provided under the Jharkhand Mukhyamantri Maiyaan Samman Yojana from Rs 1,000 to Rs 2,500 starting in December 2024, and we are keeping that promise. While some beneficiaries received their December instalment, Rs 5,000 will now be credited to the accounts of those who did not receive it,” he added.

Over 3 Lakh Women Expected to Attend the Programme

The Chief Minister will distribute the honorarium at a grand ceremony in Namkum. Initially planned for December 28, 2024, the event was postponed due to the national mourning period following the death of former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh.
