Good news for 2.5 crore Maharashtra women beneficiaries enrolled in the Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana. The Devendra Fandnavis-led state government is likely to release the sixth instalment for eligible women this week or next week, December 2024. However, the exact date has not yet been announced. Reports suggest that the government could release the funds anytime this month.

Under this scheme, the Maharashtra government has already disbursed five instalments, each amounting to Rs 1,500. Women who are eligible and enrolled in the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana scheme are eagerly awaiting the sixth instalment, which will cost Rs 21,00.

Under the Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana, beneficiaries are expected to receive Rs 2,100 per month starting in December 2024. During the Assembly election campaign, the Maharashtra government had earlier promised to increase the monthly amount from Rs 1,500 to Rs 2,100 if the Mahayuti alliance came to power. To fulfil this promise, the government recently allocated an additional Rs 1,400 crore in a special budget session held in Nagpur.
