Research question: Given a person's basic profile, can a system identify which government welfare schemes they likely qualify for, in a handful of questions rather than a manual search?
India has hundreds of welfare schemes, and most eligible citizens never discover the ones that apply to them. This project builds a conversational eligibility matcher against 170 real schemes scraped from myscheme.gov.in.
Eligibility criteria are free text, not structured rules. This matches on each scheme's real tags instead — and always shows the scheme's actual eligibility text so users can verify themselves.
251 unique raw tags had many spelling variants of the same category (PwD, Person With Disability). Manually grouped into 15 canonical categories before matching.
