Haryana CM releases ₹2,100 each to eligible women beneficiaries

Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Friday (October 31, 2025) released ₹2,100 each to 5,22,162 eligible women beneficiaries under the ‘Deen Dayal Lado Lakshmi’ scheme, which, he said, was aimed at promoting self-reliance and economic empowerment.

Addressing a press conference in Chandigarh, he said: “This step towards women’s empowerment is not merely a government scheme, it is a shining example of the transparent policy and honest intent of the double-engine government committed to social transformation.”

The Chief Minister added that the BJP government was working to safeguard the rights of disadvantaged Scheduled Castes, ensuring their participation in government jobs, panchayat elections, and local body elections. The government had also implemented various schemes for the welfare of backward classes and economically weaker sections, he said.

Mr. Saini said the current government had made unprecedented progress in youth employment, providing 3,00,000 young people with government job opportunities over the past 11 years in a fully transparent manner.

“The State government is focusing on both education and skill development for youth in line with the new National Education Policy. A robust ‘Ease of Doing Business’ ecosystem has been established to accelerate industrial growth,” he added.
