Madhya Pradesh government's flagship Ladli Behna scheme was seen as having played a key role in the BJP remaining in power in the state.
No fresh registrations have been accepted under the Madhya Pradesh government's flagship Ladli Behna scheme, which was seen as having played a key role in the BJP remaining in power in the state, since August 20, 2023 - two months before the state elections - a minister informed the Assembly today.
The minister's statement comes at a time when government functionaries have been asserting that the state will increase the amount given to eligible women from the economically poor sections under the scheme from Rs 1,250 per month to Rs 3,000 - as promised after its introduction last year. She informed the Assembly that the amount is not being changed as of now.
On Tuesday, which was the second day of the winter session, Congress MLA Mahesh Parmar raised four key questions regarding the scheme. He asked when the government intended to restart registrations for women who missed out during its launch and those who are newly eligible; whether it plans to increase the amount to Rs 3,000 in the Rs 22,400-crore supplementary budget tabled on Tuesday; whether the eligibility age would be reduced from the current 21 to 18; and if the upper age limit would be extended beyond 60 years.
