Earlier, CM Yadav said, "Today, under the Ladli Behna Yojana, a second gift will be given to our sisters after the month of Sawan. As per the Prime Minister's intention, I will do as much as I can for the betterment of women. I hope that with this money, they will present many examples of betterment in their lives. I know of many sisters who have bought sewing machines with this amount, some have started their own independent business and their income has increased. Today is the time to do whatever we can for the betterment of their children and families. I will deposit this amount from the Bina. Let us all walk together with the government in the direction of women's empowerment."
Rs 1000 for 1.25 crore women
Notably, the Ladli Bahna scheme was initially launched by former CM Shivraj Singh Chauhan, providing ₹1000 per month to women. The amount was later increased to Rs 1250, with future plans to gradually raise it to Rs 3000 per month. Currently, approximately 1.25 crore women in the state benefit from the scheme.
