Bhubaneswar: Agriculture & Farmers’ Empowerment Minister Arun Sahoo on Wednesday told the Odisha Assembly that over 1.04 lakh of the 56,14,707 beneficiaries under the KALIA (Krushak Assistance for Livelihood and Income Augmentation) scheme have been declared ineligible.
Replying to MLA Soumya Ranjan Patnaik, the minister said that the benefits of the scheme are being provided through Aadhaar authentication and bank account verification to ensure that no single beneficiary is left out.
