    Omit those with 2 wives: MNS leader on Maharashtras Ladki Bahin scheme

    A Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (MNS) leader on Wednesday voiced concerns regarding the newly introduced women welfare scheme Ladki Bahin in Maharashtra, suggesting it should exclude communities with two wives, specifically mentioning the Muslim community. On a Marathi news channel, MNS leader Prakash Mahajan criticized certain aspects of the initiative and sought clarification from the government. Furthermore, Mahajan was critical of the governments decision to relax conditions for granting domicile certificates. ​​The scheme is the biggest announcement in the state budget, with an allocation higher than any other new scheme.
