The Government of India and the state governments of the country bring all the schemes for the welfare of citizens from time to time. The purpose of these schemes is to provide economic, social and health related facilities to the public. Especially the schemes being run for women are becoming a means of strengthening their self -reliance, economic empowerment and social participation. Along with the central government, state governments are also running special schemes for women.
One of these schemes is the “Ladli Bahna Yojana” of the Government of Madhya Pradesh, which was implemented in the year 2023. The scheme has worked to make millions of women financially competent by providing financial assistance every month. But recently the names of many women have been removed from the beneficiary list of this scheme. In such a situation, it is very important to know whether your name is still in the list.
In this article, we will give detailed information about the entire process of its benefits, eligibility, name cut and the entire process of checking the status.
What is Ladli Bahna Yojana?
The purpose of the Ladli Bahna scheme launched by Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan is to provide financial assistance to the women of the state every month so that they can become self -sufficient. Under the scheme, an amount of ₹ 1250 is transferred to eligible women every month to their bank accounts.
The government’s intention behind implementing this scheme was that the women of the state could fulfill their needs themselves and they do not have to depend on anyone. Especially women of rural and economically weaker sections got tremendous relief from this scheme.
How much amount is received under the scheme?
Initially, when this scheme was implemented, women were given an amount of ₹ 1000 per month. But in 2024 it has been increased to ₹ 1250. This amount is sent to women’s Jan Dhan bank accounts every month through DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer).
Which women can take advantage of this scheme?
The benefit of Ladli Bahna Yojana is available only to those women who meet the eligibility conditions fixed by the government. Eligibility is as follows:
✅ Eligibility Terms:
The woman should be a resident of Madhya Pradesh.
Age should be between 18 and 60 years old.
The annual income of the family should be less than ₹ 2.5 lakh.
The woman and any member of her family should not have a government job.
The name of a family member should not be paid income tax.
The woman’s bank account should be linked to Aadhaar and active.
If none of these conditions is fulfilled, the woman is excluded from the plan.
Why the names of women cut?
Recently the beneficiary list was reviewed by the government, in which many women’s names were removed from the scheme. There can be many possible reasons behind this:
The woman was over 60 years of age.
A member in the woman’s family was found in a government job.
The annual income of the family exceeded the fixed limit.
The bank account was closed or did not link to Aadhaar.
The documents were found incomplete or wrong.
The same woman has applied twice.
