An eighteen-month struggle by a woman to claim her YSR Bima benefits came to an end on Monday at the Spandana programme conducted by Krishna Collector S. Ranjit Basha.
According to a release, the woman, identified as Velagam Siva Parvathi of Movva mandal in Krishna district, lost her husband to cardiac arrest two years ago. She then applied for compensation of ₹2 lakh promised under the YSR Bima scheme.
However, her application did not go through and she was deprived of the compensation for months despite her submitting the grievance at multiple Spandana hearings over the past one-and-a-half years, according to officials.
