Maharashtra Women and Child Development Minister, Aditi Tatkare, gave an important update on Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana scheme on Saturday, December 13, saying, "Only one chance to correct e-KYC" for women beneficiaries in the state.
The deadline for completion of the e-KYC process for women beneficiaries of Ladki Bahin Yojana is December 31, 2025. If the e-KYC not completed, the women will not be eligible to receive Rs 1,500 per month. However, Minister Tatkare argues that women correct their errors and complete the process to continue receiving the Rs 1,500 stipend to their dedicated bank accounts timely. If e-KYC is not completed, payments may stop, even if you were previously receiving funds.
"Most beneficiaries of the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin scheme are from remote, rural areas. It is natural for errors to occur from them during the e-KYC process. The department has received numerous representations requesting an opportunity to correct these errors," Maharashtra Minister Tatkare in a post on X.
"Since this scheme is being implemented with the objective of women's empowerment, it is extremely essential to provide these women with an opportunity to rectify mistakes made during e-KYC. Keeping this in mind, a final opportunity to make corrections in e-KYC only once is being provided until December 31, 2025," she wrote further.
The Maharashtra Minister gave major relief for women beneficiaries whose husbands or fathers are no longer alive to complete the e-KYC process. The minister means that women whose husbands and fathers are not alive can complete their e-KYC without their UAID numbers, which is this feature now available on the official portal.
"The Women and Child Development Department is committed to making this process more convenient and simpler so that the maximum number of beloved sisters can benefit from the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin scheme." she said.
