Women in Chhattisgarh receiving benefits under the Mahtari Vandan Yojana now have an important task to complete—eKYC.
eKYC Now Mandatory for Benefits
The government has made eKYC compulsory for the Mahtari Vandan Yojana.
The deadline is June 30, 2026.
This scheme currently supports around 69 lakh women, providing ₹1,000 every month.
To ensure that only eligible beneficiaries continue receiving this amount, the eKYC step has been introduced.
Officials have clarified that the process is completely free. No fees are required at any stage.
How to Complete Your eKYC
The process is simple but must be done offline.
You only need two things:
your Aadhaar card and your registration number.
If you live in a village, visit your nearest Panchayat Bhawan.
If you live in a city, go to your local ward office.
Officials there will help you complete the process quickly.
Can You Do eKYC Online?
Right now, online eKYC is not available.
The official portal—Mahtari Vandan Portal—does not support this feature yet.
Trying to complete eKYC through a mobile phone may lead to errors or failure.
For now, visiting the nearest government office is the safest and recommended option.
Don’t Miss the Deadline
June 30, 2026, is the final date.
If eKYC is not completed before this, there is a risk that benefits may stop.
So it’s important to act early and avoid last-minute rush.
Who Can Get the Scheme Benefits?
The scheme is meant only for certain groups of women.
Applicants must be permanent residents of Chhattisgarh and at least 21 years old.
It is available to married women, widows, divorced women, and those abandoned by their husbands.
Unmarried women are not eligible. Also, the applicant or her family should not be income tax payers.
How to Check Your Status
You can check your application and payment status online.
Visit the official portal and click on “Application and Payment Status.”
Enter your registered mobile number, Aadhaar number, or registration number.
After OTP verification, your status will appear on the screen.
Final Take
The eKYC step is crucial to keep receiving benefits without interruption.
With a simple offline process and a clear deadline, completing it on time will ensure continued financial support under the scheme.
