Madhya Pradesh Government Conducts Impact Audit of Ladli Behna Yojana After Three Years The Madhya Pradesh government has initiated a comprehensive impact audit of the Ladli Behna Yojana, a welfare scheme aimed at empowering women and girls, three years after its launch. The audit, conducted by the Mohan Yadav-led administration, seeks to evaluate the scheme’s social and economic impact, assess its effectiveness in improving the livelihoods of beneficiaries, and identify areas for improvement. A high-level committee comprising officials from five key departments has been formed to conduct the assessment, with a deadline of one month to submit its findings. The Ladli Behna Yojana, launched in 2023, provides monthly financial assistance of ₹1,500 to over 1.25 crore women across the state. The scheme has been a cornerstone of the government’s efforts to uplift women and girls, particularly in rural and urban areas. The audit aims to analyze how this financial support has influenced local economies, reduced poverty, and enhanced the socio-economic status of beneficiaries. Additionally, the government is examining the scheme’s role in the 2023 state elections, where it was credited with contributing to the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) landslide victory. The high-level committee, tasked with the audit, includes senior officials from the Department of Finance, Panchayat and Rural Development, Food and Civil Supplies, and Public Works. The committee will also engage with beneficiaries through the Chief Minister’s Jan Vishwas Abhiyan initiative, which involves direct dialogue with scheme recipients. District collectors, such as Rajiv Ranjan Meena, have already begun collecting feedback from beneficiaries to gauge the scheme’s real-world impact.#bharatiya_janata_party #madhya_pradesh_government #mohan_yadav #ladli_behna_yojana #atal_bihari_vajpayee_institute
