Sharing an incident where a woman reported that her vote had been cancelled, Kejriwal said, “Today, when we went to start the registration for ‘Mahila Samman Yojana,’ a sister told me that someone had got her vote cancelled.

It is necessary to have your name in the voter list to receive Rs 2100 every month,” he added.
Meanwhile, Chief Minister Atishi tweeted, “A new era of women empowerment is beginning with the registration of ‘Mahila Samman Yojana’ in Delhi. Today, I registered the initial beneficiaries of this scheme with Arvind Kejriwal.”
