Cash Schemes vs Real Needs: What Bengal’s Women Really Want | Ground Report | DeKoder

Описание: As Bengal heads into the 2026 elections, one voter group is at the center of every political strategy — women.

From promises of increased financial aid under the Lakshmir Bhandar scheme to direct outreach in North Bengal, political parties are doubling down on welfare politics.

But what is the reality on the ground?

In this report from Udlabari Tea Garden near Siliguri, women share how these schemes are impacting their lives. While many say the monthly assistance helps with basic needs like education and household expenses, others question the amount, irregular access, and lack of benefits from other government schemes like housing.

Some receive the money consistently.
Some don’t without clear answers why.

So, is financial aid enough to secure political trust?

Or are deeper issues like employment, housing, and long-term security shaping voter sentiment?

This ground report captures the voices that may ultimately decide Bengal’s political future.
