Maharashtra Chief Minister Meri Ladli Behna Yojana turned out to be a game changer for the Mahayuti in the state assembly polls. In the recently concluded Maharashtra elections, the alliance of Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde), BJP and Ajit Pawar’s NCP, ‘Mahayuti’ got a huge majority.
The Ladli Behna Yojana is being credited as the main factor behind Mahayuti’s historic victory. In response to this scheme by the ruling Mahayuti, the opposition Mahavikas Aghadi (MVA) had announced the Mahalaxmi Scheme for women, promising Rs 3,000 per month. However, women beneficiaries placed their trust in the Mahayuti instead. Meanwhile, some significant good news has emerged regarding the Ladli Behna Yojana.
Chief Minister Eknath Shinde made a big announcement
The Mahayuti had said in its election promise that if they come to power again, the amount of Ladli Behna Yojana will be increased from Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,100. Chief Minister Eknath Shinde has announced that as per the promise of the manifesto of Mahayuti, the Ladli sisters of the state will soon be given Rs 2,100 instead of Rs 1,500.
