Thus even if one document as per the rules of theDelhi Ladli scheme is not available with the Applicant, the Applicant is disqualified from applying for the benefits under the said scheme without being given an opportunity to rectify the shortcomings that may have arisen, it added.With many different schemes, school students have Zero Balance Bank Accounts starting Class I.That the Ladli Scheme requires students to apply for a new bank account with SBI just for receiving funds resulting in a girl child having multiple bank accounts.To avoid such multiplicity, the Ladli scheme shall include the bank account already existing with the Girl child and integrate the same, the plea read.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
