Eknath Shinde in discussion
Recently, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde had given great news about the Ladki Bahin scheme. Shinde had said that the state budget will be presented on March 10 and in this budget the current amount for the Ladki Bahin scheme can be increased from 1500 to Rs 2100 per month. Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde had said that we had promised to give Rs 2100 per month to the state’s dear sister in the election and we will definitely fulfill that promise. Along with this, Eknath Shinde had said that the Ladli sisters have voted in the election and have made the step brothers sit at home.
Regarding Ladki Bahn Yojana, Eknath Shinde had said that I was the Chief Minister, so during my tenure the Chief Minister Ladki Bahin Yojana was started. We took this big decision with the then Deputy Chief Ministers Devendra Fadnavis and Ajit Dada Pawar and happy with this, the Ladli sisters also voted for the Mahayuti government in the assembly elections. That is why now our responsibility has increased. We have to give self -respect to all the dear sisters and make it self -reliant and it is our responsibility.
