The Central Government has introduced the Pradhanmantri Scholarship Scheme to ensure financial support for the education of children and widows of police personnel, Assam Rifles, RPF, and RPSF personnel who have lost their lives in terrorist or Naxalite attacks or during their line of duty. This scheme also extends its benefits to children whose parents have been disabled while serving in these forces.
Scholarship Amount and Eligibility: The Prerequisites for the PM Scholarship Yojana
The scholarship, ranging from INR 2000 to INR 3000, aims to alleviate the financial burdens of education. However, it is essential for students to score at least 60% in their 12th grade to qualify for the benefits. Furthermore, the scheme restricts its benefits to students studying within India, excluding those pursuing education abroad.
Recognized Institutions: A Prerequisite for the Scholarship Benefit
The benefits of the Pradhanmantri Scholarship Yojana can only be availed by students enrolled in recognized institutions. Citizens who wish to benefit from the scheme can apply through the National Scholarship Portal, making it easily accessible for all eligible candidates.
