The Madhya Pradesh government established the Ladli Behna Yojana on March 15, 2023. Its main goal is to help with the empowering daughters and women economically. 1.25 crore eligible members have received financial aid under the program thus far, with payments being distributed twice. Beginning on July 25, applications for the second phase were accepted to bring the scheme’s benefits to women previously excluded. Also qualified to benefit from this initiative are women who own tractors.
This year’s launch of the program aims to give women more financial power. Now, eligible women can apply from five different sites, and the eligibility requirements have been loosened to expand its benefits to more mothers and daughters. This government program in Madhya Pradesh guarantees that eligible participants get a monthly transfer of Rs. 1,000 to their bank accounts on the tenth of every month, thus strengthening their financial independence and stability.

The Madhya Pradesh Government has in the past introduced several programs aimed at women’s development. Ladli Laxmi Yojana was implemented to improve the sex ratio, increasing the number of girls receiving an education, improving their health, and laying the groundwork for a bright future for girls. The state government assists in such women empowerment scheme for women who experience any crime or violence and are left without financial support from their families.
