The Bhajanlal government is set to provide significant benefits to workers under the Shramik Kalyan Yojana. In a major relief for laborers, the government has increased financial assistance for the marriages of their daughters. Previously, workers were entitled to ₹50,000 for their daughters' weddings, but the government has now raised this amount by ₹25,000, bringing the total assistance to ₹75,000 per daughter for up to two daughters.
Increase in Assistance for Workers' Daughters’ Marriages
Several welfare schemes are being implemented for agricultural market workers under the Mahatma Jyotiba Phule Mandi Samiti Kalyan Yojana. As part of this initiative, the Bhajanlal government has expanded the Workers' Welfare Fund, ensuring that laborers receive increased financial aid for their daughters’ weddings. The revised policy aims to alleviate the financial burden on workers, enabling them to conduct their daughters’ marriages with dignity. This initiative is expected to benefit thousands of families across the state.
CM Bhajanlal Expected to Announce More Benefits
On February 19, the Bhajanlal government presented the 2025-26 state budget. Since then, political tensions have arisen in the Assembly due to statements made by Minister Avinash Gehlot. However, Chief Minister Bhajanlal is scheduled to address the Assembly on Thursday, where he is expected to respond to budget-related discussions. Speculations suggest that the CM might announce additional benefits and schemes for the state’s residents.
Citizens and political observers are eagerly awaiting his address, as it could bring further relief measures for various sectors. With this recent increase in financial assistance for workers, the government has reaffirmed its commitment to labor welfare and social support initiatives.
