Maharashtra Ladki Bahin Yojana instalment: Rs 1,500 due soon
Beneficiaries of the Maharashtra Ladki Bahin Yojana are awaiting this month's instalment of Rs 1,500. The scheme, launched by the state government, provides direct cash transfers to eligible women in the state.
The Story in Brief
Beneficiaries of the Maharashtra Ladki Bahin Yojana are awaiting this month's instalment of Rs 1,500. The scheme, launched by the state government, provides direct cash transfers to eligible women in the state.
Livemint reports that the exact date for the March payment has not yet been officially announced, though past instalments have been credited around the middle of the month. Women enrolled in the scheme are advised to check their bank accounts and the official portal for updates.
The Indian Opinion
Every month, a predictable frenzy of speculation and fake WhatsApp forwards surrounds the Ladki Bahin Yojana instalment date. The state government could easily end this by publishing a fixed annual payment calendar, as done for other welfare schemes. Until then, beneficiaries will remain vulnerable to anxiety and misinformation. A simple question for the Maharashtra women and child development department: why not just announce the schedule upfront?
