Madhya Pradesh Transfers 34th Ladli Behna Instalment of ₹1,836 Crore to Over 1.25 Crore Women

Conflicting official tallies cloud the scheme’s cumulative outlay after the latest transfer.

Overview

  • Chief Minister Mohan Yadav executed a single-click transfer during a Ladli Behna Sammelan at Shabari Mata Temple in Gwalior, with Union minister Jyotiraditya Scindia in attendance.
  • Eligible beneficiaries currently receive ₹1,500 per month, following earlier hikes from ₹1,000 at launch and ₹1,250 in September 2023, with a stated goal to reach ₹3,000 by 2028.
  • The event also featured the inauguration and foundation laying of 54 projects worth about ₹122 crore in Gwalior district.
  • Highlighted works included a ₹40-crore Sandipani Government Higher Secondary School building in Kulaith and a ₹9.11-crore bridge over the Sank River.
  • Reported cumulative disbursal figures diverge, with officials earlier citing ₹54,140 crore through February’s 33 instalments versus a post-event figure of over ₹55,976 crore that includes the 34th transfer.
