She is Ranubala Nama, a differently abled senior citizen, residing in Dharmanagar, North Tripura.
The destitute woman has not received her monthly old-age allowance of ₹1000 since June 2022.
She is now working as a house help to make her ends meet. @MoRD_GoI please see

Despite a robust Aadhar Enabled Payment System (AEPS), Ranubala ji has not received her old age allowance for 4 months.
There is clear negligence at some level, which is now making her life miserable.
So far, she has been treated with utmost disdain by local authorities. (2/n)
Her bank account details:
Account Number: 612060011902
IFSC: ICIC00TSCBL
Name: Ranubala Nama
@MoRD_GoI please look into the matter urgently.

And turns out, she is not the only one suffering from non-payment of monthly allowance.
Ranubala ji knew us and so approached us directly. For the time being, my family has provided monetary help.

This is an administrative issue and should be dealt with accordingly. It is hard to imagine someone surviving on ₹1000 rupees a month.
And it is even harder to imagine that such a person did not receive the said amount for 4 months. (5/n)
Laxity of this level is disheartening. Request urgent intervention of @MoRD_GoI.
For the time being, you can contribute directly to her account (if you wish to)

#Disclosure: Ranubala ji does not work as a house help at my house. We will never employ a senior citizen for such work. Regards.
