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 launch the Nishadraj Boat Subsidy Scheme, giving fishermen boats worth up to Rs 1 lakh at 40% subsidy, provide up to 25% subsidy for setting up fish-seed production units, and set up 6 state-of-the-art model fish markets.”

Our Assessment

Partly delivered. Uttar Pradesh launched the Nishadraj Boat Subsidy Yojana (alongside the Mukhyamantri Matsya Sampada Yojana) in 2024-25, giving fishermen a 40% subsidy on boats and nets (about Rs 28,000 on a Rs 67,000 boat-plus-net cost), targeting 1,500 lease-holders a year. The launched parameters differ from the manifesto (boat cost well below Rs 1 lakh; fish-seed banks rather than a 25% fish-seed-unit subsidy), and the promised 6 model fish markets are not confirmed. Marked partial.
