Over 10,000 youth have applied for Unemployment Allowance Scheme which is being implemented in the state government since April 2017.

A government spokesperson said the applications are being examined along with the documents required and the eligible applicants will be provided the allowance after verification of their documents.

“In an effort to minimise mishandling of funds, the payment under the scheme would be made only through bank accounts,” he said.
