Bhagwant Mann Government has launched the Mukh Mantri Mawan Dheeyan Satkar Yojana, with eligible women receiving ₹1,000 per month and Scheduled Caste women ₹1,500 per month through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT). Calling it a "historic day", AAP leaders say the government is fulfilling another major poll promise and empowering women. Yet the promise was made before the 2022 elections, while its implementation has come after four years and four months, with the 2027 Assembly elections now approaching. If this scheme was always meant to transform the lives of Punjab's women, why did they have to wait until the Government's final year ? Does the timing strengthen the promise, or raise questions about the politics behind it ?
