A city-based chartered accountant has filed a public interest litigation (PIL) in the Bombay High Court against the Maharashtra government`s `Mukhyamantri Majhi Ladki Bahin Yojana`, a cash benefit scheme for women, citing that it would put an additional burden on taxpayers.
The petitioner sought quashing of the Government Resolution dating July 9 introducing the scheme, under which a monthly allowance of Rs 1,500 will be transferred into bank accounts of women in the 21 to 65 age group whose family income was less than Rs 2.5 lakh.
