NEW DELHI, June 1: The Delhi Cabinet chaired by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has approved important proposals related to the Ad-hoc Monthly Relief (AMR) scheme provided to Jammu and Kashmir migrant families.
This decision will benefit around 1,832 J&K migrant families registered with the Delhi Government. The scheme will apply only to those registered migrant families who have received relief up to March 31, 2024.
CM added that the Government has decided to remove the income-related eligibility condition for providing relief to these families, and now eligibility for relief will not be affected, irrespective of family income or ownership of any immovable property.
Eligible migrant families registered with the Delhi Government will receive relief in accordance with the existing rules, and the benefits will be available for a maximum of four members in a family.
she added that One-Time Amnesty Scheme is being introduced to ensure that beneficiary records are completely accurate and properly maintained. Under the scheme, migrant families will get another opportunity to update correct information about their existing family members and their Aadhaar details.
During this process, if any beneficiary had earlier received excess relief due to an inadvertent error or a technical issue, the amount will not be recovered from them.
The main objective of this initiative is to correct errors in government records so that, in future, relief provided by the government reaches only genuine and eligible families without any interruption.
