Haryana to launch 'Lado Lakshmi Yojana' on September 25
Haryana is launching the "Lado Lakshmi Yojana," a new scheme that gives eligible women ₹2,100 per month, starting September 25 (on Deendayal Upadhyaya's birth anniversary).
Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini says this move is all about empowering women and keeping a key promise made by the state government.
Who's eligible for the scheme?
In the first phase, the scheme is for women aged 23 and above from families earning less than ₹1 lakh a year.
Both married and unmarried women can apply; for married applicants, their husbands need to have lived in Haryana for at least 15 years.
There's no cap on how many eligible women from one family can benefit.
The government also plans to expand the scheme later so more income groups can join in—making it a step toward greater financial independence for women across Haryana.
