CM Rajshri Yojana 2026: Current Status, Lado Protsahan Merger, Eligibility, Instalments and Application
Mukhyamantri Rajshri Yojana was Rajasthan’s girl-child support scheme that linked cash assistance with birth, immunisation and continued education. It provided eligible girls with benefits across different life and school stages. In 2026, however, families should not treat Rajshri as a fresh standalone scheme with a new registration window. Rajasthan has formally integrated Rajshri into the newer Lado Protsahan Yojana, which is now the active girl-child incentive framework.
This change is important because many older web pages still describe Rajshri as if its original ₹50,000 instalment structure is the current route for new beneficiaries. Rajasthan’s revised 2026 Lado Protsahan guidelines state that Rajshri has been subsumed into Lado Protsahan and that future eligible Rajshri instalments are to be paid under the Lado framework. Existing Rajshri beneficiaries therefore need continuity and record verification, while new eligible births are handled under Lado Protsahan.

What Was Mukhyamantri Rajshri Yojana?
Rajshri Yojana was introduced to improve attitudes toward the birth of a girl child, encourage institutional delivery, improve vaccination, reduce school dropout and support girls through secondary education. The scheme did not pay the entire benefit at birth. Instead, each instalment was linked to a milestone so that the family continued to receive support as the girl progressed through health and education stages.
Original Rajshri Instalment Structure
- ₹2,500 after the eligible institutional birth of the girl child.
- ₹2,500 after completion of the prescribed first-year immunisation stage.
- ₹4,000 when the girl entered Class 1 in an eligible government educational institution.
- ₹5,000 on admission to Class 6.
- ₹11,000 on admission to Class 10.
- ₹25,000 on completion of the Class 12 stage under the prescribed scheme conditions.
These six payments added up to ₹50,000 under the earlier Rajshri structure. Families with an old beneficiary record should not assume that a missed stage can simply be claimed years later without verification; earlier instalment history and the current Lado transition rules matter.
What Changed Under Lado Protsahan Yojana?
- Rajasthan introduced Lado Protsahan Yojana across the State from 1 August 2024.
- The current revised scheme provides a total commitment of ₹1.50 lakh in seven instalments for eligible beneficiaries.
- The first two instalments are handled through the medical/health system, later school-linked instalments through the education system, and the final higher-education stage through the relevant department.
- Rajshri Yojana has been formally subsumed into Lado Protsahan.
- Future eligible Rajshri instalments are payable under the Lado framework instead of operating Rajshri as a separate new scheme.
Who Should Read the Rajshri Rules in 2026?
- Parents whose daughter was originally registered under Rajshri and has pending future milestones.
- Families checking why a Class 1, Class 6, Class 10 or later payment has not appeared.
- Parents whose child’s old Rajshri record is not matching current Jan Aadhaar, health or school records.
- Families who see older ₹50,000 Rajshri articles online and want to know whether a new 2026 Rajshri application is available.
Documents and Records to Keep Ready
- Jan Aadhaar details of the family.
- Aadhaar details of the mother/guardian and beneficiary where applicable.
- Birth and institutional-delivery record.
- Mother and child health/immunisation record for early-stage verification.
- School admission and student record for education-linked instalments.
- Bank account details mapped to the applicable DBT record.
- Old Rajshri beneficiary ID, receipt or payment history if the girl was already enrolled under Rajshri.
How the Current Process Works
- For a child already under Rajshri, first preserve the old beneficiary/payment record rather than making a duplicate entry.
- Check that Jan Aadhaar, mother/guardian details, bank information and the girl’s identity are correct.
- For health-stage payments, make sure birth and immunisation information has been correctly entered in the State health system.
- For school-stage payments, verify that the girl’s admission and class details are correctly reflected in the education database.
- If an instalment is missing, contact the relevant health, education, women empowerment or local e-Mitra/departmental help channel with the beneficiary record.
- For a new eligible girl child born under the current framework, follow Lado Protsahan rather than searching for a fresh standalone Rajshri form.
Why an Instalment Can Be Held Up
- Earlier Rajshri instalment has not been recorded as paid/eligible.
- Jan Aadhaar family details do not match the beneficiary record.
- Immunisation or school admission data has not synced to the relevant portal.
- Bank account mapping or DBT details are incorrect.
- The girl’s school stage does not meet the applicable government-institution condition.
- A duplicate beneficiary entry exists under different family or identity details.
Do Not Confuse Rajshri With Other Rajasthan Girl Schemes
Rajasthan has operated several programmes for girls over time, including Shubhlakshmi, Rajshri and now Lado Protsahan. Their names, benefit totals and eligibility periods are not interchangeable. For a child born in the current Lado period, the family should follow Lado rules. For an older Rajshri beneficiary, the relevant question is how the pending milestone is being transitioned, not whether the family should start an entirely new Rajshri application.
FAQs
Q. Is Mukhyamantri Rajshri Yojana open as a new standalone scheme in 2026?
The current Rajasthan framework has subsumed Rajshri into Lado Protsahan Yojana. New eligible cases are handled under Lado, while future eligible instalments of older Rajshri beneficiaries continue through that framework.
Q. Will an old Rajshri beneficiary lose all future benefits because the scheme name changed?
The merger does not by itself cancel a valid pending entitlement. Rajasthan’s revised guidelines state that future Rajshri instalments are to be paid under Lado Protsahan subject to eligibility.
Q. Should parents create a new Lado record if their daughter already has a Rajshri beneficiary record?
They should first verify the transition status of the existing record. Creating duplicate identities can delay payments and make reconciliation harder.
Q. What if the child studied in a private school for one of the required stages?
The earlier Rajshri education-linked instalments were tied to prescribed government educational-institution conditions. The competent department should verify the particular milestone before payment.
Q. Where should an old Rajshri family complain about a missing school-stage instalment?
Start with the school/education record and the local departmental/e-Mitra channel, while keeping the old Rajshri beneficiary ID and previous payment history available for verification.
