All the students from 1st to 8th class registered on national scholarship portal are being permanently rejected by ministry. There no scholarship will be credited into the account.

The Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009 makes obligatory for the Government to provide free and compulsory elementary education (classes 1 to VIII) to each and every child.

Accordingly only students studying in classes DX and X are covered under the Pre-Matric Scholarship Schene of Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment and Ministry of Tribal Affairs.

Likewise from 2022-23, the coverage under the Pre Matric Scholarship Scheme of Ministry of Minority Affairs shall also be for classes DX and X only.

The Institute Nodal Officer (INO)/District Nodal Officer (DNO)/State Nodal Officer (SNO) may accordingly verify applications only for classes IX and X under the Pre Matric Scholarship Scheme of Ministry of Minority Affairs.
