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 increase the current marriage grant of ₹25,000 to ₹2 lakh for upto two daughters of a martyred soldier.”
Our Assessment
The promise was to raise the marriage grant for up to two daughters of a martyred soldier from Rs 25,000 to Rs 2 lakh. Approved-source evidence shows related marriage-grant support, but not the promised Rs 2 lakh level: the Uttarakhand Soldier Welfare page lists a Rs 50,000 central marriage grant for up to two daughters of eligible ESM or widow, while the KSB Guidebook 2025 lists Uttarakhand state-level daughter marriage grant of Rs 1 lakh for a maximum of two daughters of martyrs, widows, or orphans up to JCO rank, and a separate Rs 30,000 grant through the Police and Armed Forces Sahayata Sansthan. This is partial because the beneficiary class and two-daughter structure are partly matched, but the verified amount remains below the promised Rs 2 lakh. Budget status: benefit rates are verified, but no specific annual allocation or corpus line was found.
