Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav on Tuesday praised the Maharashtra government's Ladki Bahin Yojana scheme, saying that it is a notable one for women's empowerment.
"It is a very good scheme and so many states are adopting this scheme and I am happy about it...it is a notable scheme for women empowerment...opposition has never done anything other than looting people so they feel power is slipping through their hands," said Madhya Pradesh CM in Pune. Speaking on the Shivshrushthi Theme Park, the Madhya Pradesh CM said, "Depicting the life of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, this has emerged as a centre of devotion. He lived for this country - the life of someone like him has been depicted beautifully." The Maharashtra government launched the scheme on August 17 to provide financial assistance to women and make them more independent and self-reliant. The scheme aims to empower women through financial assistance, providing Rs 1,500 per month to women aged 21-65 with an annual income of less than Rs 2.5 lakh. Meanwhile, Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday held a detailed discussion with the party leaders and workers in Mumbai's Dadar and claimed that the formation of a 'Mahayuti' government in Maharashtra is certain. "While on one hand, the MVA alliance in Maharashtra is setting records of crossing all limits of appeasement, on the other hand, the NDA government of the state under the leadership of Modi ji is setting new records for the welfare of all sections. Today in the meeting in Dadar, Mumbai, the workers took a pledge to form 'NDA government," Shah posted on X. On the occasion, Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, Maharashtra BJP chief Chandrashekhar Bawankule, Mumbai BJP chief Ashish Shelar, and other leaders were also present. Earlier on September 25, Amit Shah in Nashik held a detailed discussion with the party leaders and workers and said that only the NDA government, under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, can speed up the development of Maharashtra. Maharashtra legislative assembly elections will be held in 288 constituencies. The Election Commission of India has yet to announce the dates for the election. The upcoming Maharashtra election will see a contest between the Maha Vikas Aghadi coalition, comprising the Shiv Sena (UBT), NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), and Congress, and the Maha Yuti Alliance, which includes the BJP, Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction), and NCP (Ajit Pawar faction).
