**Delhi CM Assures Women: Mahila Samriddhi Yojana On Track Despite Implementation Delays**

**New Delhi – May 31, 2025** – Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta addressed concerns regarding the rollout of the highly anticipated Mahila Samriddhi Yojana, promising that the scheme, which provides ₹2,500 monthly to Delhi’s women, will reach all eligible recipients.

Speaking to reporters on Friday, Gupta stated that 100 days was insufficient time to implement such a “vast and full-fledged initiative.” The BJP-led government launched the scheme on International Women’s Day (March 8), allocating ₹5,100 crore in the Delhi budget. However, the government is still finalizing the eligibility criteria.

“This is not a one-time scheme but a full-fledged initiative that requires a well-examined plan for implementation,” Gupta said. “We do not want any woman to be left behind.”

To oversee the implementation, the Chief Minister has constituted a committee headed by herself and including Ministers Parvesh Sahib Singh, Ashish Sood, and Kapil Mishra.

The Mahila Samriddhi Yojana was a key promise made by the Bharatiya Janata Party during the Delhi Assembly election campaign. The government’s assurance that the scheme is on track will likely be welcomed by Delhi’s female population. The public awaits the government’s announcement regarding eligibility requirements.
