What is Ladli Bahana Yojana?
Under the Mukhyamantri Ladli Bahana Yojana of Madhya Pradesh, women below 60 years of age get Rs 1,000 every month. This money is sent directly to their bank account through DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) linked with Aadhaar. The main aim of this scheme is to provide financial help to women so they can manage their expenses and get better nutrition.
This scheme helps women to become financially independent and play an important role in family and community decisions. If a woman is getting less than Rs 1,250 per month under the Social Security Pension Scheme, the government adds the remaining amount so that she gets Rs 1,250. Similarly, if a woman below 60 years is getting less than Rs 1,000 per month from any other social security pension scheme, she will be given extra money to complete Rs 1,000.
