Ladli Behna cash transfer raised to Rs 3,000/month for women

The BJP's 2023 Sankalp Patra pledged to raise monthly aid to eligible women progressively toward Rs 3,000. As of June 2026 the amount remains Rs 1,250/month (Rs 18,669 crore provisioned in the 2025-26 budget); CM Mohan Yadav announced on 13 Sept 2025 it would rise to Rs 1,500 after Diwali and Rs 3,000 by 2028.

Delivered Since 2023

LPG cooking-gas cylinder at Rs 450 for Ladli Behna and Ujjwala beneficiaries

The state subsidises refills so registered Ladli Behna and PM Ujjwala women pay an effective Rs 450 per cylinder, with the difference credited to their accounts; the scheme is operational and continued into 2025-26.

In progress Since 2024

Wheat procurement at Rs 2,700 per quintal for farmers

The 2023 manifesto promised wheat procurement at Rs 2,700/quintal. The actual MP procurement price reached about Rs 2,600 (central MSP plus a state bonus of Rs 175 in 2025-26, falling to Rs 15 bonus on a Rs 2,585 MSP for 2026-27), still short of the Rs 2,700 pledge.

In progress Since 2023

Housing for all - homes for Ladli Behna beneficiaries and no homeless family

The Sankalp Patra pledged that no family would remain homeless, with houses for Ladli Behna beneficiaries via PM Awas Yojana plus a new state public housing scheme; rollout continues under PMAY but a distinct standalone state scheme for all Ladli Behna women is not yet fully operational.
