Ladki Bahin Yojana 2026: Is the Scheme Ending? Here’s the Truth
Amid growing chatter online, the future of the Ladki Bahin Yojana had many women in Maharashtra worried. Claims of the scheme being scrapped spread quickly, but the government has now stepped in with a firm clarification.
Scheme Will Continue, Says Minister
State minister Hasan Mushrif has dismissed all rumours about the scheme being discontinued. Despite financial pressure, he confirmed that the initiative will continue to support women. He also rejected reports linking the scheme to delays in government salaries, calling such claims baseless. Mushrif said, “Maharashtra is a progressive state, and this scheme will continue to support women.”
Strict Checks Lead to Account Closures
The government has taken a major step by closing nearly 68 lakh beneficiary accounts. The primary reason? Failure to complete mandatory e-KYC within the deadline. As a result, active beneficiaries have now reduced to around 1.75 crore.
