Is There a ₹3,500 Stipend Under the Pradhan Mantri Berojgar Bhatta Yojana? Debunking the Claim

"Discover the truth behind the viral WhatsApp claim about a nonexistent ₹3,500 unemployment scheme from the Indian government."

Supported by

A recent viral message on WhatsApp claims that the Government of India is offering a monthly stipend of ₹3,500 under a scheme called the ‘Pradhan Mantri Berojgar Bhatta Yojana’ aimed at unemployed youth. This message has raised concerns about its authenticity, prompting a fact-check to clarify the situation regarding this alleged government program.

Claim

The claim states that the Government of India is providing ₹3,500 per month to unemployed individuals under the ‘Pradhan Mantri Berojgar Bhatta Yojana’. This claim is false, as no such scheme exists.

Fact

The truth is that there is no official program by the Indian government offering financial assistance under the name mentioned in the WhatsApp message. The Press Information Bureau (PIB) has confirmed that such a scheme is not being run by the government, and similar claims have been debunked in various reports.

The top three sources attributing this fact include:

  1. PIB Fact Check
  2. India.com

Conclusion

This fact check falls under the category of False Content, as it provides information that is wholly false and misleading regarding government assistance programs for unemployed youth.
