Goverment Scheme
Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has launched the "Mukhya Mantri Nijut Moina Asoni" scheme to combat child marriage in the state. This initiative aims to provide financial assistance and support to families who prevent their children from marrying before reaching legal adulthood. The scheme will offer incentives to those who ensure their children complete their education and delay marriage until the age of 18 for girls and 21 for boys. The move is part of a broader effort by the state government to tackle social issues and improve child welfare.
The scheme promotes education and awareness about the harmful effects of child marriages.
Local authorities will monitor and assist in implementing the scheme effectively.
