<h1>Maharashtra's Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana supports women without affecting other welfare schemes, despite fiscal concerns.</h1> Maharashtra minister stated that the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana, which provides Rs 1,500 monthly to women aged 21-65 with a family income below Rs 2.5 lakh, has not affected other welfare schemes. Each initiative, including farm crop insurance and Shiv Bhojan, has a separate budget allocation. While some ineligible individuals have misused the Ladki Bahin scheme, the government aims to support financially weak women. Despite opposition concerns over its cost amid a significant fiscal deficit, the government plans to maintain and potentially increase welfare programs without halting any existing ones.
