How to get help

Visit the District Minorities Welfare Office in your District Collectorate. Please confirm eligibility, amounts and the application form there.

Amounts and rules can change — confirm at the office. Ummazo never handles money; donations go directly to the society's own account. · Last checked: Wed, 21 Oct 2026
