No selfie in loo, no wedding! That's what applicants under 'Mukhya Mantri Kanya Vivah/Nikah Yojna' are being told in Madhya Pradesh if they want to get married and the brides-to-be want to become eligible to receive Rs 51,000 under the scheme.
As per the government scheme, brides from economically backward sections of the state are eligible to receive Rs 51,000 provided they prove that the groom's house has a toilet before the wedding. And for that, it has been made mandatory for the groom to click a selfie while standing in the toilet in his residence.
The initiative is aimed at ensuring that toilets are constructed in every household in the state.
