Details

The Moksh Kalash Yojna - 2020 is a scheme initiated by the Rajasthan government to facilitate the timely immersion of the ashes of deceased individuals in the Ganges at Haridwar, especially in light of the disruptions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Due to the pandemic, transportation resources have not been operating smoothly, making it difficult for families to perform this last rite. Under this scheme, the government provides free travel for up to two family members of the deceased to Haridwar with an urn for the ashes. The Rajasthan State Road Transport Corporation is the executing agency for this scheme, while the Devasthan Department is responsible for funding.
