Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut accused the Mahayuti government in Maharashtra of giving giveaways despite the state`s Rs 8 lakh billion debt. Raut suggested that this was due to the defeats of the ruling parties in the Lok Sabha elections. His comments came after Chief Minister Eknath Shinde announced a job training and stipend initiative for youth, tentatively dubbed the `Ladka Bhau` Yojana. This occurred immediately after the government implemented a monthly cash aid program for eligible women, reported PTI.
Married, divorced, and women from low-income backgrounds, aged 21-60, would receive Rs 1,500 per month under the `Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin` scheme, as long as their yearly family income does not exceed Rs 2.5 lakh, the report added.
