Implementation Of the Swasraya Scheme

Older parents of mentally challenged physically handicapped persons require emotional strength and flexibility to take care of their children because they always need special care and attention regarding their day-to-day activities. And for single mothers, it is quite a difficult task to look after their handicapped children and to do household things together. So the Social Justice Department has devised an innovative scheme known as the Kerala Swasthya Scheme through which financial assistance will be provided to single mothers which enables them to find self-employment. These Rs 35000 will be given as one-time assistance to the family

Need Of Kerala Swasraya Scheme
