Several videos circulating widely on social media claim that the Indian government is offering ₹5,000 to every woman, urging viewers to apply through a website to receive the money.
The videos feature an anchor making the announcement and instructing users to quickly fill out an online form before January 15 to avail the benefit.
The anchor says: “समय बहुत कम है 15 जनवरी तक ही रुपए ले पाओगे। पंद्रह जनवरी तक घर की एक महिला को पाँच हजार और दो महिलाओं को दस हजार रुपए मिलेंगे। दोस्तों आज की सबसे बड़ी breaking news सभी महिलाओं को सरकार दे रही है दस हजार रुपए बिलकुल free सीधे bank account में अगर आपने अभी तक फायदा नहीं लिया है तो पंद्रह जनवरी से पहले आवेदन कर दो पैसे मिल जाएँगे कैसे मिलेंगे? मैं बताती हूँ पहले reel को save कर लो कहीं गुम ना हो जाए क्योंकि आगे की प्रक्रिया समझने में काम आएगी और फिर पर search करके इस website को खोलकर थोड़ा नीचे आकर इस post में नीचे आकर इस form में अपनी detail डालकर apply now पर okay कर दो आपका काम हो गया”
(English translation: “Time is very less, you will be able to get the money only till 15th January. Till 15th January, one woman of the house will get five thousand and two women will get ten thousand rupees.

NM VERIFIED
NewsMobile investigated the viral claim and found it to be false and part of an online scam.
A detailed keyword search yielded no official government notification or credible media report announcing any such financial assistance scheme for women.
Further investigation revealed that the link shared in the video — bazartak.net — redirects users to a suspicious website seeking personal and banking details, a major red flag indicative of phishing and data-harvesting fraud.
Checks across the official websites and verified social media handles of the Government of India, the BJP, and concerned ministries also confirmed that no such scheme has been announced.
Additionally, a closer analysis of the video exposed multiple signs of AI-generated manipulation, including lip-sync inconsistencies, synthetic audio, and unnaturally smooth facial movements.
To corroborate the findings, NewsMobile analysed the clip using Hive Moderation’s AI-detection tool, which confirmed that the video was AI-manipulated.
In conclusion, the claim that the government is giving ₹5,000 to women is completely false. The viral video is AI-generated and part of a scam designed to steal personal information.
