The Yogi government is set to harness the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to make social welfare schemes more effective, transparent, and free from irregularities. The Social Welfare Department is moving towards technologically strengthening the monitoring of key welfare schemes such as old age pension, family benefit, scholarships, and mass marriages.

AI-Based Safeguards Against Fraud

This initiative aims not only to ensure that benefits reach the rightful beneficiaries but also to make administrative processes faster, paperless, and more accountable.

To eliminate any scope of irregularities, the department is considering the adoption of an AI-based monitoring system. Recently, a special workshop on the theme “Use of AI in Social Welfare Schemes” was organized in the presence of Social Welfare Minister (Independent Charge) Asim Arun.

One-Time Registration & Paperless Process

With the help of AI, accuracy will be ensured in data verification, beneficiary identification, and scheme implementation. This will help curb malpractices and guarantee that benefits reach genuine beneficiaries on time.

The department has already strengthened online monitoring to promote transparency and ease in schemes such as the Scholarship Scheme, National Family Benefit Scheme, and Old Age Pension. In the scholarship scheme, students will no longer have to undergo repeated registrations, as a one-time registration number system has been introduced.

Swift Implementation & Increased Trust

This not only saves time but also ensures that eligible beneficiaries receive uninterrupted benefits. The integration of AI will further enhance accuracy, prevent fraudulent applications, and deliver benefits swiftly.

Through data analytics, only genuine beneficiaries will be able to access the schemes, while AI-driven verification will speed up application processing and instantly flag fraudulent submissions.

Through this forward-looking initiative, the Yogi government is taking the Social Welfare Department’s schemes to a new milestone in the digital era. The shift to a paperless system will reduce unnecessary paperwork and speed up implementation.

Fulfilling the Vision of Inclusive Welfare

AI-driven technology will bring transformational improvements in data management, beneficiary verification, and scheme monitoring. Along with simplifying administrative procedures, it will also strengthen public trust in the government.

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has consistently emphasized that the benefits of welfare schemes must reach the last person standing in the queue. The AI-based monitoring system marks a significant step in fulfilling this vision. The Social Welfare Department will soon finalize and roll out its detailed action plan.
