'WE WILL VOTE WISELY

The Maharashtra government's ambitious 'Majhi Ladki Bahin' scheme has received a tremendous response from women. Under this scheme, women with an annual family income of less than 2.5 lakh get monthly aid of ₹1,500.

Several women in the state have already received 3,000 for two months in their bank accounts recently, while others whose applications are under scrutiny will get ₹4,500 for three months in September. Speaking to The Free Press Journal, Pune women stated that the scheme is "beneficial" for them and that it would help them in running their homes to some extent. Some women also stated that the money they have received will not influence their votes come Assembly polls later in the year.
