Hours after taking oath, CM declares Ladki Bahin review

Within hours of being sworn in as Maharashtra's new chief minister, Devendra Fadnavis announced that his government would be undertaking a scrutiny of the popular Ladki Bahin Yojana.

HT had first reported on November 25, two days after the Mahayuti's landslide win, that a recalibration was on the cards of the scheme that has been budgeted at ₹46,000 crore annually.

imageFadnavis said one of the first measures of his government will be to examine the list of the beneficiaries and to weed out those who are ineligible. "There are complaints about the beneficiaries not complying with the parameters and their scrutiny is necessary. It will not be completely scrapped. The scrutiny will be on the lines of the PM Kisan Yojana, where the ineligible beneficiaries had given up their benefit on their own," he said.
