The Opportunity
State welfare schemes (MGNREGS, POSHAN, Mid-Day Meal) have systemic gaps in implementation, beneficiary coverage, and fund utilization (₹56,157 Cr underutilized). As audits intensify and state governments face CAG scrutiny, they need real-time data reconciliation, beneficiary tracking, and compliance reporting tools to bridge the gap between sanctioned funds and actual delivery. No current solution addresses cross-scheme beneficiary deduplication and fund leakage detection.
