The cabinet also approved the Mukhya Mantri Lok Sevak Arogya Yojana (MMLSAY) to streamline medical reimbursement procedures for government employees and pensioners. All medical reimbursement claims will be processed via an online portal of the Atal Amrit Abhiyan Society.

The state government decided to provide government jobs to the next-of-kin (NOK) or a family member of Army/Navy/Air Force personnel who made the supreme sacrifice for the nation. This will help the families of the martyrs to live a dignified life in society and provide them financial stability after the death of their bread earner.
