The scheme provides financial assistance to eligible girl children at different stages of their lives, from birth to higher education. Recently, the total financial assistance under the scheme was enhanced to \u20b925,000, making it one of the most significant girl-child welfare initiatives in the state. The scheme seeks to promote education, health, and gender equality while reducing social discrimination against girls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Objective_of_the_Scheme\"><\/span>Objective of the Scheme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The primary objective of the Mukhyamantri Kanya Sumangala Yojana is to encourage the birth and education of girls and to create a positive social environment for them. Through direct financial support, the government aims to reduce the financial burden on families and ensure that girls receive proper education and healthcare facilities. The scheme also contributes to reducing child marriage and promoting women&#8217;s empowerment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Financial_Assistance_Under_the_Scheme\"><\/span>Financial Assistance Under the Scheme<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the revised structure of the scheme, eligible beneficiaries can receive a total benefit of \u20b925,000 distributed across six stages of a girl&#8217;s life. Financial support begins at birth and continues until admission to higher education courses.
