This scheme is to cover 1.1 crore families in the state. Rajasthan’s natives would be able to avail its benefits if covered under any of the national acts for food security. The eligibility will be based on socio-economic caste census of 2011. Statement 2 is incorrect: The scheme will cover both general and serious illnesses’ treatment.
