Why MeraHaq Exists
Most Indians never claim what is already theirs
These are not charities. These are rights and entitlements paid for by your taxes and guaranteed by the Constitution of India.
Hundreds of Schemes
India has hundreds of central and state welfare schemes. The average family qualifies for many of them but claims only 1–2.
Nobody Tells You
Scheme information is buried in government PDFs and ministry portals that most people cannot navigate easily.
These Are Your Rights
Free legal aid, worker protections, emergency hospital treatment — these are constitutional and legal rights, not charity.
Real Money Is Waiting
Between PM Kisan, crop insurance, scholarships, food security and insurance schemes — eligible families can access significant benefits they are legally entitled to but often miss.
Official Sources Only
Every scheme links to its official government source. All information is sourced from .gov.in portals only. We present it in plain language — always verify before applying.
Always Free
No registration, no fees, no personal data collection. This site is a public service — every Indian deserves to know their rights and entitlements.
