Modi govt to deposit Rs 1.24 lakh to women bank a/c holders under Stree Swabhimaan Yojana? Here is the truth

New Delhi: Modern technology and its vices go hand in hand. With the advent of new age technology, you will find that information is floating on all online platforms.

However it is very important to know and differentiate between correct and incorrect information.

Lately, a viral post is doing rounds on social media platforms stating that the Modi government will deposit Rs 1,24,000 to all women account holders in their bank under the Stree Swabhimaan Yojana.

Busting the truth behind the viral post, Press Information Bureau (PIB) has stated that the government has not made any such announcement wherein it will deposit the above mentioned amount in the bank account of women. This news is a fake news that is going around in the social media.

PIB has tweeted:

दावा: एक #YouTube वीडियो में यह दावा किया जा रहा है कि केंद्र सरकार सभी महिलाओं के बैंक खातों में 'स्त्री स्वाभिमान योजना' के तहत 1 लाख 24 हज़ार रूपए की राशि जमा कर रही है। #PIBFactCheck: यह दावा फर्जी है। केंद्र सरकार द्वारा ऐसी कोई योजना नहीं चलाई जा रही है। pic.twitter.com/WxSdmPiNsm — PIB Fact Check (@PIBFactCheck) November 17, 2020
