The significant delay in releasing Laadli Laxmi funds was yet again discussed in the legislative assembly with MLA Michael Lobo highlighting that some women applicants have even become mothers while still awaiting the financial benefit.
“Several women are still awaiting the financial assistance promised under this scheme. It’s been 3-4 years for some applicants, yet the funds have not been released. Some have even become mothers,” Lobo stated urging immediate release of pending funds. MLA Aleixo Lourenco also echoed the concerns, calling for a regular and timely release of both Griha Aadhar and Laadli Laxmi assistance to eligible applicants. He also suggested increasing the Griha Aadhar dole stating that many women are genuinely in need of these funds.
