Indian Masterminds Stories

Bhopal: In a significant move ahead of Rakshabandhan, Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav announced that the beneficiaries of the Ladli Behna Yojana will receive ₹1500 as a Rakhi “Shagun” this year. More importantly, the monthly assistance under the scheme—currently set at ₹1250—will be increased to ₹1500 after Diwali.

This decision is expected to benefit over 1.31 crore women across the state and is seen as a key step in strengthening the state’s commitment to women empowerment and financial inclusion.

₹250 Extra as Rakhi Gift in August Installment

According to government sources, the 27th installment of the Ladli Behna Yojana will be credited between August 1 and August 7—well before Rakshabandhan. This month’s transfer will include the standard ₹1250 installment, plus ₹250 as a Rakshabandhan bonus, totaling ₹1500 for each sister.

CM Yadav assured that “every Ladli sister will receive this amount directly in her bank account as a token of love and empowerment from the government.”

Post-Diwali Raise: From ₹1250 to ₹1500 Monthly

The Chief Minister confirmed that from November 2025, the monthly support amount under the scheme will be permanently revised to ₹1500. He said, “This scheme is more than financial aid—it is a movement toward dignity, self-reliance, and economic strength for our sisters.”

Yadav further added that the government is exploring options to raise the amount even further in the future.

Ladli Behna Yojana: A Pillar of Women-Centric Governance

Launched to provide monthly financial assistance to women, the Ladli Behna Yojana has become one of the cornerstone schemes of the Madhya Pradesh government. With this increase, the government reinforces its focus on women-centric welfare policies, especially for rural and underprivileged households.

Plans for Skill Development and Employment Opportunities

In addition to financial support, the CM announced that plans are underway to link the scheme with self-employment and skill development initiatives. These would include vocational training, entrepreneurship programs, and access to small business loans.

This is not a freebie—it’s an investment in women’s future,” the Chief Minister said.
