The beginning of July 2025 has brought relief for lakhs of pension beneficiaries in Uttar Pradesh. Pension payments have started being credited to the bank accounts of disabled, widowed, and elderly pensioners who had been waiting for a long time. If you are also a beneficiary of Uttar Pradesh’s social security pension scheme and are waiting for your pension, then this article is very useful for you.
Who is eligible for Uttar Pradesh Pension Scheme?
The pension schemes run by the Uttar Pradesh government are for those citizens who are socially, economically, or physically not self-reliant. Under these schemes, the following groups receive monthly pension.
- Disabled (Divyang) citizens
- Widowed women
- Elderly people aged 70 years or above
The government provides ₹1000 per month as financial assistance to these groups, helping them meet their daily needs to some extent. This amount is transferred directly to the beneficiaries’ bank accounts through DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer).

Uttar Pradesh Pension distribution status in July 2025
The pension distribution process has been active since the beginning of July. According to information received from various districts, pension amounts have been credited to the bank accounts of many beneficiaries, while some are still waiting.
There have also been cases where a beneficiary initially requested a lump sum amount of ₹12,000, which was later rejected. However, when the person re-requested ₹3000, it was approved and successfully transferred through the treasury to their bank account.
This clearly shows that sometimes due to the application details or technical issues, there may be delays or rejections in pension processing.
