‘Jiyo Parsi’ scheme portal has been launched by Union Minister Kiren Rijiju.
‘Jiyo Parsi’ scheme portal would enable Parsis to apply, check the status of their application and to receive financial assistance online through direct benefit transfer mode.
The Ministry of Minority Affairs is implementing the Jiyo Parsi scheme to reverse the declining trend of the Parsi population.
Under this scheme, the declining trend of the Parsi population is trying to be reversed by adopting a scientific protocol and structured interventions to stabilise their population.
This scheme provides financial assistance to Parsi couples for medical treatment under standard medical protocol and child care.
It also provides financial assistance to dependent elderly people.
