People who work on Aadhaar, people involved in making voter list will also do this work.” Annapurna Yojana will be controlled by the Women and Child Welfare Department of the state government.
Shubhendu said that there are many “shortcomings” in the ‘Lakshmi Bhandar’ project. In his words, “Our initial idea was that the list of Lakshmi Bhandar recipients has been verified, but we have received a lot of complaints about this. About 30 lakh people whose names have been permanently removed from the voter list and who have not applied in the tribunal are getting money from Lakshmi Bhandar.”
Shubhendu Adhikari has asked everyone to fill the form of Annapurna Yojana to remove the name. Those who have applied for citizenship under CAA will get the benefit of this scheme. Those whose names have been removed from the SIR, but have applied to the Tribunal, are also being kept in the list as exceptions.
