Chief Minister Dhami urges Aadhaar relief
In August 2026, 5,605 new people got approved for pensions, including seniors, widows, and those with disabilities.
Chief Minister Dhami says he wants to make sure eligible beneficiaries who are unable to obtain Aadhaar don't miss out because of paperwork issues like Aadhaar hiccups, urging officials to keep things simpler and more transparent for eligible beneficiaries.
