He also said registration for the Sanjeevani Yojana which will provide free treatment to people above 60 years of age will also begin along with it.

In its 2024-25 budget, the Delhi government had announced the Mukhya Mantri Mahila Samman Yojana scheme to provide ₹1,000 per month to all women aged above 18. However, Kejriwal recently announced that the amount would be raised to ₹2,100 if his party returns to power in the assembly elections, slated for February next year.
