The government had earlier said all 10.74 crore households categorised as deprived in the SECC 2011 would benefit from the scheme.

NEW DELHI:
Families that earn more than Rs 10,000 a month, or own a refrigerator or a two-wheeler, among other amenities, won’t be able to benefit from the Modi government’s ambitious health insurance scheme. The National Health Agency (NHA), responsible for implementing the Ayushman Bharat - Pradhan Mantri Jan Aarogya Yojana (AB-PMJAY) scheme, has asked states to exclude such households from the programme as many people who weren’t meant to be beneficiaries — including MPs, MLAs, and high-ranking authorities — have got PMJAY cards, officials said.

The government had earlier said all 10.74 crore households categorised as “deprived” in the Socio Economic and Caste Census (SECC) 2011 would benefit from the scheme, which aims to provide cashless hospitalisation worth up to Rs 5 lakh per year to about 50 crore Indians.

Households owning more than 2.5 acres of irrigated land with irrigation equipment, or five acres or more of irrigated land for two or more crop seasons, or at least 7.5 acres with irrigation equipment are also excluded, as per the SECC 2011.
