Maharashtra Extends e-KYC Correction Deadline for Majhi Ladki Bahin Beneficiaries

The Maharashtra government has set March 31, 2026 as the final date for beneficiaries of the Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin scheme to correct any errors in their e-KYC details. This step aims to ensure eligible women receive the monthly benefit of ₹1,500 under the programme.

Many beneficiaries faced issues because of mistakes made during the online e-KYC process. These errors prevented some women from receiving their payments even after completing the verification. To resolve these problems, the government has opened an online facility where beneficiaries can update or fix incorrect information.

Beneficiaries are urged to complete these corrections well before the deadline to avoid missing out on the scheme benefits. The correction process must be done through the official online portal.

Physical Verification at Local Level

Alongside the online correction facility, the government has also instructed district officials to carry out physical verification of beneficiaries. This effort is being supported by Anganwadi workers, who will visit homes to verify details and assist beneficiaries where needed.

This additional step is aimed at improving accuracy in beneficiary records and ensuring that the right individuals receive the support they are entitled to.
