Original manifesto wording
“Restore the festival-gift and wedding-gift (kanuka) schemes.”
Our Assessment
On track. The marriage-assistance scheme is being restored as 'Chandranna Pelli Kanuka' - financial assistance reported in the Rs 50,000 to Rs 1.2 lakh range for SC/ST/BC/minority brides (about Rs 1 lakh, more for inter-caste), with a manifesto commitment to raise amounts and extend cover to Muslim minorities. The wedding-gift element is captured; a distinct festival-gift component is less clear. Details from non-approved sources; an approved/government citation is to be attached.
