Objective of Uttar Pradesh Kanya Vivah Sahayta Yojana

In this scheme, the financial aid to the eligible beneficiaries is given as follows:

1. Normal Marriage Assistance

Rs. 55,000 to get a daughter of the registered worker married.
Rs. 55,000- self-marriage of a registered female worker in construction (on terms).

2. Inter-Caste Marriage Assistance

Rs. 61,000 in the form of financial support.
