PM Matru Vandana Yojana: How mothers can claim up to Rs 6,000 in maternity benefits
- • PMMVY pays Rs 5,000 for the first living child in two instalments, transferred to an Aadhaar-linked bank account.
- A further Rs 6,000 goes to mothers on a second child, but only if that child is a girl.
- Payments are tied to pregnancy registration, antenatal check-ups, birth registration and immunisation.
- Women already drawing maternity benefit from a government or PSU job are excluded.
