About the Scheme

Lado Protsahan Yojana (formerly Mukhyamantri Rajshree Yojana) is a girl-child welfare scheme in Rajasthan. As reported, it was introduced in 2024 and integrates the earlier Mukhyamantri Rajshree Yojana. We use the current name along with the former name so readers familiar with “Rajshree” can recognise it.

The scheme is administered by the Women & Child Development Department. Its objective is to encourage the birth and education of girls in economically weaker families and to support them financially from birth right through to graduation.

The support is structured so that money is released at key stages in a girl’s life — starting from birth and continuing through school milestones. Because the exact stage-wise split and eligibility conditions can be updated, treat the amounts below as reported figures and confirm the current details on the official portal before relying on them.

Benefits

As reported in the scheme details, the total benefit is Rs 1,50,000 per eligible girl, released in instalments — reported to be across seven stages — from birth, through school milestones, up to Class 12 or graduation. The support is delivered through a savings bond / Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) structure.

  • Total of Rs 1.5 lakh per eligible girl (as reported).
  • Released in instalments, reported to be across seven stages.
  • Covers the journey from birth through school milestones up to Class 12/graduation.
  • Delivered via a savings bond / DBT structure.

Please confirm the exact stage-wise split of the Rs 1.5 lakh on the official portal, as the reported seven-stage breakup should be verified before publishing or relying on it.

Eligibility Criteria

  • The girl child must be born in a government or JSY (Janani Suraksha Yojana) approved medical institution.
  • The mother must be a native/resident of Rajasthan.
  • The family should be in the economically weaker / eligible category.
  • As reported, the benefit is typically for the first two girl children — please confirm this condition on the official portal.

Documents Required

Keep the following ready, as reported (confirm the exact list on the official portal):

  • Institutional delivery record (JSY)
  • Jan Aadhaar
  • Mother’s residence proof
  • Aadhaar card
  • Bank account details
  • Birth certificate
  • School enrolment proof (for later stages)

How to Apply

  1. For the birth stage, the benefit is largely auto-linked from Janani Suraksha Yojana / Jan Aadhaar / hospital delivery records.
  2. For later stages, apply through the Women & Child Development Department / portal as the girl reaches school milestones.
  3. The benefit is paid via DBT to the girl’s or guardian’s bank account.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

  • Delivery not done in a government or JSY-approved facility.
  • Mother not being a resident of Rajasthan.
  • Family not registered on Jan Aadhaar.
  • Missing milestone proof (such as school enrolment) for the later instalments.
