- Uttar Pradesh raises financial help under Samuhik Vivah Yojana to ₹1 lakh for poor couples.
- Income limit increased from ₹2 lakh to ₹3 lakh, allowing more families to join.
- Government will carry out changes smoothly using family identity system to track beneficiaries better.
Uttar Pradesh has increased financial help under Samuhik Vivah Yojana to ₹1 lakh, offering better support for poor couples. The scheme now accepts applications from families earning up to ₹3 lakh per year, making it possible for many more deserving families to benefit. These changes, introduced by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, are an important step in helping communities and supporting respectful weddings.
Financial Benefits under Samuhik Vivah Yojana
The recent increase in financial help from ₹51,000 to ₹1 lakh has been planned carefully to support newly married couples well. Here’s how the amount is divided:
- ₹60,000 transferred directly into the bride’s bank account.
- ₹25,000 set aside for buying gifts to celebrate the newlyweds.
- ₹15,000 reserved to help cover wedding ceremony expenses.
This setup makes sure couples get immediate financial support while also enjoying their wedding celebrations, especially helping those from poor backgrounds to have a dignified wedding.

Eligibility Criteria and Income Limits
One important change is the rise in the annual income limit for eligibility from ₹2 lakh to ₹3 lakh. This change lets more poor families who were just outside the earlier limit become eligible.
This shows the government’s commitment to social welfare by recognizing real financial struggles and adjusting the support accordingly. If your family earns less than ₹3 lakh a year, you can now apply for this scheme.
How the Government Will Implement These Changes
The Uttar Pradesh government is working on ways to put these improvements into action smoothly.
- The new financial assistance and income limits will be applied right away as per government orders.
- The family identity system will be linked to the Samuhik Vivah Yojana for easier identification and verification of eligible beneficiaries.
- Technical updates will support not just this marriage scheme but also other welfare programs like old-age pensions.
These steps will help avoid delays and make sure benefits go to the people who need them most on time.
Finding and Supporting Eligible Beneficiaries
Making sure no eligible couple or individual misses out on benefits is a priority. The government plans to:
- Use strong verification linked with the family identity system to confirm beneficiaries.
- Ensure quick transfer of funds, especially sending money directly to the bride’s bank account.
- Set up monitoring to prevent delays or wrong exclusions from the scheme.
These efforts make sure the scheme achieves its goal of lifting poor households and promoting equality across Uttar Pradesh.
