The Madhya Pradesh government, under Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan, has announced a special subsidy for LPG cylinders. From 1 October 2023, women registered under the Ladli Behana Yojana can purchase a 14.2 kg LPG cylinder for just Rs 450. This initiative aims to ease household cooking expenses ahead of upcoming elections.
The scheme is part of the Ladli Behana Yojana, which already provides a cash assistance of ₹1,250 to eligible women. By reducing the LPG cylinder price from the usual ₹1,100‑₹1,200 to ₹450, the government seeks to make a basic necessity more affordable for low‑income families.
The Madhya Pradesh government's decision to price LPG cylinders at ₹450 for Ladli Behana Yojana beneficiaries represents a significant step toward reducing household expenses for women in need. By linking the subsidy to an existing welfare program, the state ensures that the most vulnerable families receive direct support. Eligible women should promptly verify their registration and take advantage of this affordable cooking fuel.
