As the election year in Maharashtra approaches, the Shinde government has opened the treasury for unemployed youth. On the lines of the Ladli Behna Yojana, now the Ladla Bhai Yojana will give benefits up to Rs 10,000 per month. Chief Minister Eknath Shinde gave this information to the media after the Maha Puja at Vitthal Temple in Pandharpur. CM Shinde said that under the 'Ladla Bhai Yojana', the Maharashtra government will give Rs 6000 to 12th pass youth, Rs 8000 to diploma holders and Rs 10,000 to graduates every month.
Announcing this scheme, CM Shinde said that under the 'Laadla Bhai Yojana' scheme, our government is going to give money to the youth of the state for apprenticeship in factories where they will work. This is the first time in history that a government has introduced such a scheme, through this scheme we have found a solution to unemployment.
Let us tell you that the opposition party in Maharashtra has been raising the issue of rising unemployment among the youth for a long time. The Shinde government has responded to the opposition in a way by announcing financial help for the youth. This announcement of CM Eknath Shinde is also being linked to the Maharashtra assembly elections to be held this year. It is being said that the government has tried to woo many sections by making this announcement a few months before the elections.
A few days ago, Uddhav Thackeray had also raised the issue of unemployed youth in Maharashtra. Talking to the media after the assembly session, he said that I demand a scheme for boys for the youth of Maharashtra like the Ladli Yojana of Madhya Pradesh. Today there is no difference between girls and boys. In such a situation, boys and girls should get equal benefits of such schemes.
