Ladki Bahin Yojana: The Maharashtra government is always coming up with innovative ways to give women more economic power. A monthly stipend of ₹1,500 is already paid to women under the Chief Minister’s Ladki Bahin Yojana. For these women, the Mumbai Bank and the Women and Child Development Department have now introduced an interest-free loan program. This program is designed especially for women who wish to start down the path to financial independence and self-sufficiency.
Interest-Free Loan: Amount and Recipients
Government data indicates that women who are eligible for this program can start their own small companies with interest-free loans between ₹10,000 and ₹1 lakh. Only women who are already enrolled in the “Ladki Behen” program and get a monthly stipend of ₹1,500 are eligible for this facility.
Individual and Collective Loan Program
Additionally, the program gives women the choice to apply for loans on their own or in groups of two to ten to receive a combined loan. Crucially, there won’t be any extra trouble or need to visit the bank because loan installments would be taken straight out of the monthly stipend.
Ladki Bahin Yojana: E-KYC is required
Additionally, the government has instructed e-KYC completion for scheme participants. This attempts to stop complaints about phony identities and accounts. In addition to receiving ₹1,500 per month straight into their bank accounts after completing e-KYC, women can also apply for interest-free loans to launch small businesses like shops, sewing shops, and beauty parlors. In addition to assisting them in managing their homes, this will enable women to become independent.
Moving Towards Self-Sufficiency and Economic Empowerment
In addition to giving women financial support, the Ladki Bahin Yojana boosts their social empowerment and sense of self. The goal of this program is to improve women’s lives in a way that lasts.
