Vahli Dikri Yojana’ launched to save Gujarat’s daughters. The state in the budget on Tuesday allocated . Rs 133 crore for the scheme, under which Rs 1 lakh will be provided. to first and second daughters of a family on attaining. 18 years of age,. for their wedding or higher education. The DyCM told. the state assembly house that the scheme, the first-ofits-kind by the Gujarat government, will help prevent female foeticide, promote education of girls, and provide a substantial sum to. fund the the higher education and weddings of girls.
Sociologist Gaurang Jani said that government giving cash incentives for education of girls was good, but giving Rs 1 lakh for weddings at 18 years would incentivize parents to marry off their daughters, rather than allowing them to pursue a college education.
