⚡ Key Facts at a Glance
Ladli Behna Yojana Madhya Pradesh 2026 — Rs.1,250/Month for Women
The Ladli Behna Yojana is a women-focused income-support scheme run by the Government of Madhya Pradesh that pays Rs.1,250 every month to eligible married women. The money is transferred directly to the beneficiary's own bank account through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT), which keeps the process transparent and reduces the chance of leakage. The scheme already covers over 1.29 crore women across the state, making it one of the largest women's welfare programmes in Madhya Pradesh.
The goal is to give women a small but steady monthly income that they can use as they see fit — household needs, savings, health, or children's expenses. Because the amount lands in the woman's own account each month, it strengthens her financial independence within the family.
Example: Geeta is 38, a married woman living in Madhya Pradesh, with a family income below Rs.2.5 lakh a year. She is not an income tax payer and not a government employee, so she qualifies. After her application is approved and her eKYC is complete, Rs.1,250 begins arriving in her own bank account every month through DBT. She checks her installment history online at cmladlibahna.mp.gov.in. You can compare this with other women-focused programmes on our central schemes page.

Q: My application was rejected or not approved. What can I do?
Check your status on the portal to see whether it shows "Approved" or otherwise.
