Rajasthan government has announced doubling the incentive for inter-caste marriages to Rs 10 lakhs.
Effective immediately, inter-caste couples tying the knot will now receive Rs 10 lakhs, up from the previous incentive of Rs 5 lakhs.
Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot had recently announced this in the 2023-24 Budget after which a notification was issued by the Department of Social Justice and Empowerment.
Under the revised Dr. Savita Ben Ambedkar Inter-caste Marriage Scheme, Rs 5s lakh will be put in a fixed deposit for eight years, while the remaining Rs 5 lakhs will be deposited in a joint bank account for the newlyweds.
The scheme, launched in 2006, initially provided with Rs 50,000 which was later increased to Rs 5 lakhs in April 2013.
Conditions of the scheme:
Inter-caste marriages would be permitted only until the age of 35
Both the bride and groom must be Hindu in order to prevent polygamy
The couple would receive just half of the incentive money.
The remainder of the sum would be held as a fixed deposit in a joint account at a nationalized bank, to be withdrawn after eight years of marriage.
Within one year of marriage registration, the couple will be allowed to claim Rs. 2,50,000 to purchase home goods.
