<h1>Mandatory e-KYC within two months to keep Rs1,500 monthly girls' support benefit; annual re-KYC, Aadhaar required</h1> The state government has made e-KYC mandatory for beneficiaries of a girls' support scheme, requiring completion within two months via the scheme portal to continue receiving the Rs 1,500 monthly assistance for women aged 21-65 with annual family income up to Rs 2.5 lakh; benefits will be withheld if Aadhaar authentication is not done. The government also requires annual e-KYC for continued payments. Authorities said e-KYC will aid transparency and access to other schemes and noted prior enrolment irregularities, with about 26.34 lakh ineligible recipients among roughly 2.25 crore current beneficiaries.
