The National Social Assistance Program (NSAP) initiated on August 15, 1995, in Jharkhand aims to provide social security to marginalized populations, including the elderly, widows, and disabled individuals. An Aadhaar-based payment system was introduced to enhance transparency and efficiency, addressing challenges like ghost and duplicate beneficiaries through data cleaning and verification processes. The transition to this system has yielded benefits such as timely payments, increased financial inclusion, and reduced costs of delivery, with plans for further automation and expansion of services.
