Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay unveiled a new government scheme to provide gold rings to newborn babies in Tamil Nadu, aiming to secure a valuable asset for families.
During a ceremony in Chennai, Chief Minister C. Joseph Vijay announced a new state scheme that will provide gold rings to newborn babies across Tamil Nadu. The initiative is part of the government’s broader welfare agenda, intended to give families a tangible asset from the earliest stages of a child’s life.
Under the scheme, parents will receive a gold ring at the time of the child’s birth registration. The government plans to handle the distribution through local health and administrative offices, ensuring that every newborn is covered.
The CM emphasized that the program will help reduce future financial burdens for families and promote financial inclusion. He also highlighted that the scheme will be rolled out in phases, with the first batch of rings expected to reach parents in the coming weeks.
Officials said the rollout will be monitored closely to ensure transparency and efficiency, and that the state will provide guidance on how parents can claim the ring at the nearest registration center.
