Soren faces heat as women say ₹1K transferred, not promised 2.5K
MUKESH RANJAN @Ranchi

HUNDREDS of women are protesting in Jharkhand, angry at receiving an amount much lower than what the Hemant Soren government promised under the flagship Maiyan Samman Yojana. They took to the streets in Dhanbad and Jharia on Wednesday, claiming a transfer of ₹1,000 to their accounts monthly instead of the revised ₹2,500.

The protest embarrasses the government, which on January 6 claimed to have transferred ₹11,1415.44 crore under the welfare scheme in the form of direct benefit transfer (DBT) of ₹2,500 each into 56.62 lakh accounts.
