Haryana Expands Lado Lakshmi Scheme with New Eligibility Criteria, Faces Opposition Criticism

Haryana's Deen Dayal Lado Lakshmi Yojana has been expanded to include women with annual incomes up to 1.80 lakh. New eligibility criteria now incorporate academic excellence of children in government schools (over 80 marks in board exams or NIPUN Bharat competency) and successful rehabilitation of children from malnutrition. The government states these changes align with a 'Viksit Bharat' vision, aiming for a holistic, outcome-oriented initiative. However, the Opposition criticizes the added conditions, viewing them as humiliating and a departure from manifesto promises.
