What Is The Ladli Behna Yojana
The Madhya Pradesh government launched the Ladli Behna Yojana in June 2023 to provide monthly financial assistance to eligible women in the state. The programme initially offered Rs 1,000 per month, with the monthly assistance subsequently raised to Rs 1,250 and then Rs 1,500.
With the October transfer, the government has completed 41 instalments since the scheme began. The monthly payment is intended to provide eligible women with financial support for household expenses and other needs.
The state government has allocated Rs 23,882 crore for the scheme in the 2026-27 financial year. Eligible beneficiaries must meet the scheme's prescribed conditions to receive the monthly assistance.
The latest transfer also includes a separate disbursement for subsidised cooking gas cylinders. Under the applicable provisions, eligible women receive cylinders at a subsidised price of Rs 450. The government has transferred Rs 115 crore to the accounts of around 23 lakh women for this benefit.
How To Check The Ladli Behna Yojana Payment Status
Beneficiaries can check whether the latest instalment has reached their bank accounts through the scheme's official website, without visiting a government office.
To check the payment status online, the beneficiary must visit the official website, and look for the application and payment status option on the homepage. After locating the option, they must enter the application number or Samagra ID, as mentioned. Then, they need to enter the OTP received on the registered mobile number and complete the captcha verification. Lastly, they need to submit the details to view the application and payment status.
Other Ways To Check The Payment
Beneficiaries can verify the instalment credit without accessing the online portal. They can use an ATM or update their bank passbooks, to check their latest transaction. They should also check text messages for any communication from the bank.
One can also use the bank’s mobile app to check account statements, or a Unified Payments Interface (UPI) app to check the account balance.
In case the portal shows that the amount has been credited, but the bank statement shows otherwise, beneficiaries should verify their bank details on the portal and contact their bank if the issue is not resolved.
