Surname Snag: MA-Pass Housewife Denied Lakshmi Bhandar, Turns to Yuvasathi
•Tania Mondal Das, an MA-pass housewife from Chinsurah, was denied the Lakshmi Bhandar allowance.
•The rejection stemmed from a surname discrepancy after her marriage, where her maiden name 'Mondal' conflicted with her married name 'Das' across various documents.
•Her Madhyamik admit card and voter ID show 'Mondal', while Aadhaar, PAN, bank passbook, and marriage certificate show 'Das'.
•After two failed attempts for Lakshmi Bhandar, she has now applied for the Yuvasathi scheme, but remains uncertain due to the same surname issue.
•Chinsurah Municipality Chairman Soumitra Ghosh advised her to correct document errors and offered assistance.
