Under the Ladki Bahin Yojana, the Maharashtra government has put into effect a new and significant regulation that requires all recipients to complete the e-KYC process. Women will now need to complete both their own and their father’s or husband’s e-KYC in order to receive the benefits of the program. By taking this action, the state government’s financial burden will be lessened and fraudulent recipients will be identified.
Income Limits and New e-KYC Regulations
This new rule states that a beneficiary lady will be deemed ineligible for the scheme if her family’s overall income surpasses ₹2.5 lakh. The husband’s income will be taken into account for married women, while the father’s income will be taken into account for single women. In the past, the recipient woman’s individual salary was the only factor taken into account. The program will now only be available to women who are truly eligible after a family economic evaluation.
How to Finish the eKYC Procedure
The Ladki Bahin Yojana official website is where beneficiaries must go to finish the eKYC process. In order to do this, they must input their Aadhaar number, a captcha code, and an OTP that was sent to their mobile number. The system will indicate whether the beneficiary or their father/husband has already finished eKYC; if not, they will be able to move on to the next phase after their eligibility has been confirmed.
Effects of the Shift on Women
Although this guideline will guarantee accuracy and transparency in the scheme’s delivery, many women may find it difficult to comply. Technical difficulties, including not obtaining an OTP, prevent certain beneficiaries from completing eKYC, which prevents them from collecting benefits.
This modification guarantees that the Ladki Bahin Yojana is restricted to eligible and legitimate recipients, allowing for a more precise execution of the program’s goals and effects.
