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

Haryana's BJP government has amended the Deen Dayal Lado Lakshmi Yojana, extending financial aid to women with annual incomes up to 1.80 lakh. However, eligibility now includes academic excellence for children in government schools or successful rehabilitation of malnourished children. The Opposition criticizes these added conditions, arguing they contradict the scheme's original promise of women's empowerment and the party's manifesto, with one MP calling it a move to humiliate women.
