"I have received ₹1,000 for four months, but the increased amount as promised by the government ahead of the elections, is yet to be credited in my bank account. Meanwhile, I have received a message on my mobile that the payment for December will be given next week," said 26-year-old Sangita Devi of Hazaribagh.

Now, the government sources said that the money will be transferred on December 28 during a mega event in Ranchi in the presence of nearly 7 lakh women coming from across the state. The women will be ferried to Ranchi and back by buses for which all the deputy commissioners have been given directions.
