Ladki Bahin Yojana December Installment Date: Maharashtra government gives ₹1500 every month to women under the Ladki Bahin Yojana. Lakhs of women are waiting for the November and December installments, but till now the November payment has not been credited to their bank accounts. Because of this delay, many people believe that both months’ payment (₹3000) might come together in December.
Why the November Payment Is Delayed?
Due to the ongoing municipal (nikay) elections in Maharashtra, November installment has been postponed. Earlier, it was expected that after 3rd December election results, the 17th installment would be released. But later, Election Commission postponed the elections of 21 districts to 20 December, and the results will now be declared on 21 December. Because of this, the government is not able to release the money on time. So now the big question is When will the next installment come?
When Will the Next Installment Be Credited?
The latest update suggests that the Ladki Bahin payment is expected in the last two weeks of December, that is, after 15 December. Earlier, the government was planning to release the money by 10 December, but because election results will come on 21 December, the installment may get further delayed. Officials say that once the election process is completed, the payment will be released.
Will Women Get ₹3000 at Once?
Looking at last year’s situation, before the assembly elections, women had received two months’ installments together. Considering this example, there is a high possibility that this time also November and December payments (₹3000) might be transferred together. Sources say an official announcement may come soon.
