Cevap
Financial support is disbursed in phased Direct Benefit Transfers across developmental milestones, requiring unmarried status for the intermediate grant while providing the graduation grant irrespective of marital status.
Under the Mukhyamantri Kanya Utthan Yojana, the state government provides financial assistance in staggered stages from birth up to graduation. To combat child marriage and incentivize secondary schooling, passing the Intermediate (Class 12) examination carries an incentive that requires the candidate to be unmarried. In contrast, the grant provided upon clearing an undergraduate degree is provided to any eligible female graduate regardless of whether she is married or unmarried.
