The officers in question are a joint director of the Woman and Child Development Department and the special secretary of the Health and Family Welfare Department.

The public notices by the officers published in newspapers on Wednesday called "fraudulent" the Mukhyamantri Mahila Samman Yojana, aiming to give ₹2,100 to non-tax paying women, and Sanjeevani Yojana, for providing free treatment to those above 60 in government and private hospitals.
