Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana Next Installment Of Rs 1500 For Women: Minister Aditi Tatkare Shares Update

The Maharashtra government has resumed the distribution of monthly installments under the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana, a scheme designed to financially empower women across the state.

Maharashtra Govt’s Women and Child Development Minister Aditi Tatkare confirmed the development on Tuesday, explaining that the process had been temporarily halted due to the implementation of the election code of conduct during the recent assembly elections.

“Taking another important step towards women empowerment, today, under the leadership of Chief Minister Shri. Devendraji Fadnavis (@Dev_Fadnavis), Deputy Chief Minister Shri. Eknathji Shinde (@mieknathshinde) and Deputy Chief Minister Shri. Ajitdada Pawar @AjitPawarSpeaks), the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana is successfully running. The process, which was stopped due to the model code of conduct for the assembly elections, has been resumed today and the process of distributing the honor fund for the month of December to about 67,92,292 sisters has begun in the second phase,” said Tatkare in a social media post.
 

She further announced that the second phase, covering the month of December, would provide financial support to approximately 68 lakh women (67,92,292 women).

Key Features of the Scheme
Financial Stability: The scheme offers direct financial assistance to women, aiming to improve their economic stability and provide better support for their families.
Promoting Self-Respect: Beyond financial aid, the initiative seeks to uplift the dignity and self-esteem of women beneficiaries.
Women Empowerment: It is a step toward making women self-reliant, thereby raising their standard of living and fostering societal change.

In another tweet, she emphasized the satisfaction and positive impact the scheme has on its beneficiaries:
“It is heartwarming to see the satisfaction on the faces of women as they complete today’s phase of this initiative, which was started for women with the concept of Chief Minister Shri. Devendraji Fadnavis, Deputy Chief Minister Shri. Eknathji Shinde, and Deputy Chief Minister Shri. Ajitdada Pawar. It is hoped that this fund will bring positive changes in their lives.”
