About us
This website is dedicated to my mother, Asha ji. "Asha" means hope, and that is our effort: that the right scheme information reaches every needy person and nobody's hope is lost to wrong information or fraud.
Asha Yojana is an independent website built to give ordinary people simple, trustworthy information on Central and State (all states of India; a few main schemes per state, with more being added) government schemes. Hindi is the main language and English is available as a second language.
Our aim
People often miss out on benefits because of incomplete or wrong information, or fall into the hands of fraudsters. We explain eligibility, documents and how to apply in simple language, with links to the official portals.
What we are not
We are not a government department, agency or authorised representative. We do not charge money for filling applications. The application and the final decision rest with the concerned government department or bank.
Quality of information
We write information after checking official portals and reliable sources, and show the date of last check on each page. If you spot a mistake, tell us and we will fix it soon.
