Students are not getting the benefits of scholarship scheme, education department gave this reason

Dhamtari: Every year, Rs 300 to Rs 3,000 are given to the students of class 3rd to 12th under the state scholarship scheme, but in Dhamtari, about 22 thousand students have not received the scholarship for the last academic session.

In such a situation, there is disappointment among the students. Actually, under the State Scholarship Scheme, about 65 thousand students in the district had registered for scholarship, out of which about 42 thousand students have got scholarship, but 22 thousand children are still waiting for the government to get scholarship.

According to the Education Department, the scholarship is stuck due to non-seeding of Aadhaar from the bank accounts of the children. It was told that after linking with Aadhar, scholarship will be available soon. It was also said that for this, banks are organizing camps at various places and linking the bank account with Aadhar.
