Abstract

Indira Gandhi National Disability Pension Scheme is one element of the National Social Assistance Programme, which was established to guarantee that people with disabilities receive appropriate treatment and financial support for a higher standard of living and livelihood satisfaction. The issues that the beneficiaries confront include low state contributions, low pension amounts, strict selection procedures, issues with disbursement, a lack of medical facilities, and a lack of funding from the central government to include additional beneficiaries. Qualitative analysis will be used in conjunction with the Case Study Method. The study is also based on descriptive design and is cross-sectional in nature.300 beneficiaries will be visited, and they will be interviewed. To obtain correct data, 40 higher-level administrative officials will be contacted for advice and interviews. To determine what has to be done for the beneficiaries, the paper will provide the respondents' profiles and look into their issues. The paper will include suggestions for improving the scheme's execution.
