Mumbai, March 7: The Maharashtra government has announced a final extension for beneficiaries of the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana to correct errors in their e-KYC details. Eligible women who have not yet received their monthly INR 1,500 benefit due to technical discrepancies now have until March 31 to update their information. This move follows a surge in complaints regarding incorrect data entry, which had stalled payments for thousands of applicants across the state.

New Deadline for Ladki Bahin Yojana and Correction Window

Initially, the deadline for completing Ladki Bahin Yojana e-KYC was set for the end of 2025. However, state Women and Child Development Minister Aditi Tatkare confirmed that a special rectification window has been opened to ensure no genuine beneficiary is left behind. Common errors cited by the department include incorrectly selecting options regarding family income or government employment status. Authorities have emphasised that this is the final opportunity for corrections, and no further extensions are expected after the March 31 cutoff.
