Every woman in Punjab above the age of 18 will get Rs 1000/month deposited directly into her account, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said, announcing his 'third' electoral guarantee on Monday, 22 November.

Declaring it to be the world's 'biggest women empowerment programme', he added that if a family has three female members, then each would get Rs 1000.

"It will be world’s largest ‘women allowance’ scheme to be implemented by any government ever," the CM added.

He said that elderly women would receive the Rs 1,000 in addition to their pension.
