This has sparked concerns regarding the scheme’s feasibility and efficacy in delivering social security to millions of unorganized sector workers. Information from the Maandhan portal indicates that the pension scheme surpassed the 5-million subscriber milestone in April 2024.
While 4.3 million people had joined the scheme in FY20, merely 130,000 people were inducted in FY21, followed by 161,000 subscribers in the subsequent financial year.

This is against a target enrolment of 10 million beneficiaries in each of the financial years, starting 2020-21.
