Increase the pension for persons with disabilities to Rs 1,500 per month

The manifesto jointly promised to raise pensions for senior citizens and persons with disabilities to Rs 1,500 per month; this atomic row assesses the disability-pension component. Rajasthan’s Economic Review 2025-26 records a general monthly rate of Rs 1,250 under the Mukhya Mantri Vishesh Yogyajan Samman Pension Yojana. It reports 5.90 lakh beneficiaries and expenditure of Rs 719.89 crore during 2025-26 up to December. Higher rates for leprosy-cured persons and silicosis victims cannot be treated as delivery of the general Rs 1,500 promise for all eligible persons with disabilities. The disability-pension component is therefore partial. Budget: Rs 719.89 crore was spent under the state disability-pension scheme during 2025-26 up to December, confirming utilisation but not the promised general benefit rate.
