Latest Updated 28/08/2023: For pre matric scholarship it is now necessary to link the bank account of the students with Aadhaar. Failing this, the scholarship amount will not be sent to their bank accounts. Three lakh students of class 9th and 10th have been identified across the state, whose bank accounts are not linked to Aadhaar.
Due to non-linking of Aadhaar account of 03 lakh students across the state, funds stopped
Let us tell you that every year the education department gives pre-matric scholarship to the students of ninth and tenth class of the state. This time also scholarship has been announced. All district education offices have been instructed to link the bank accounts of these students with Aadhaar numbers. These students will now get the benefit of the scheme only after linking it with Aadhaar.
Now the students of class 9th and 10th are circling the bank, because the amount of the scheme will not go into their account until Aadhaar is linked with the bank account. Explain that under this, an amount of seven to ten thousand is given as scholarship. Talking about Patna district, bank accounts of 30 thousand 234 students are not linked to Aadhaar. Patna District Education Office has asked all the schools to mark the name of the students and link the account as soon as possible.
