Many decisions were taken today in the Karnataka State Cabinet meeting. Importantly, the Gruha Lakshmi Scheme is already being given to every householder in the state. Now the scheme has been extended to the gender minorities and the cabinet meeting has approved to give Rs 2000 per month. Many schemes have already been implemented in Karnataka for gender minorities in the state.
The Gruha Lakshmi Scheme, implemented by the Congress government, used to transfer money directly to the owner’s account of each family. So far only women are benefiting from this scheme. Due to the new announcement of the Karnataka state government, henceforth the gender minorities will also get the benefit of the Gruha Lakshmi Scheme.
