What does this status mean?

Meaningful delivery has occurred, but the stated commitment is incomplete.

Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.

Original manifesto wording

“We will expand the scope of Mission Mangalam 2.0 by providing a corpus of ₹2,500 crore. Under this, we will: Double the number of Sakhi Mandals in the state.”

Our Assessment

The Governor's 2026 address reports 6,731 SHGs formed during the reported period, alongside revolving-fund, community-investment and bank-credit support. This establishes actual group formation after the election. It does not establish doubling of the statewide stock of active Sakhi Mandals. Rural NRLM groups, urban groups, cumulative registrations and active groups require a consistent definition before comparing the 2022 baseline with the latest total. No doubling bar is calculated from annual formations.

The reasoning behind the verdict

Why this assessment?

Reviewed

01 · Delivery status

Why partially done?

New SHGs are being formed; a comparable statewide baseline and current active-group stock have not been reconciled.

02 · Strength of evidence

Why medium confidence?

Relevant delivery evidence exists, but complete scope, coverage or independent verification remains limited.

What would help us reassess?

The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.

  • A dated 2022 active Sakhi Mandal baseline
  • Latest active count using the same rural/urban definition and deduplication rules

Status describes delivery. Confidence describes the evidence.
