The Haryana Government has decided to raise the annual family income eligibility limit under the Deendayal Lado Lakshmi Yojana from Rs 1 lakh to Rs 1.80 lakh, bringing more women within the ambit of the scheme.

Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini said the scheme was launched to economically empower women and provide them monthly financial assistance of Rs 2,100. The registration portal for newly eligible women will be opened shortly.

Saini also clarified that women receiving or registering for benefits under the scheme would continue to avail themselves of benefits under other government schemes.

THE TRIBUNE, India’s oldest, daily English-language newspaper, was first published on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan), and save for 40 days in the immediate aftermath of Partition, has come out every day over the last 145 years. THE TRIBUNE was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist of the time. The newspaper is run by a five-member Trust, which is chaired by Shri N N Vohra, former Governor of J&K State (2008-2018); as well as Justice S S Sodhi, former Chief Justice of the Allahabad High Court; Shri Gurbachan Jagat, former Governor of Manipur; Lt Gen. Shamsher Singh Mehta, former Western Army Commander; Shri Paramjit Singh Patwalia, Senior Advocate in the Supreme Court.

THE TRIBUNE is free, objective, and independent. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language, are the hallmarks of the paper.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
