The bill was passed by a voice vote in state Assembly on Friday.
This bill also makes social pension a legal right for various categories of people.
In a video message, Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot said that Rajasthan is the first state in country to have a minimum guaranteed income law.
“This act is on four laws enacted during former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’ regime-Right to Information Act, Right to Education Act, Right to Food Act and MGNREGA.”
The bill promises a minimum pension of Rs 1000 to old people, specially-abled, widows and single women under social security pension schemes.
