Online applications have been invited from students belonging to minority communities — Christians, Muslims, Buddhists, Sikhs, Parsis and Jains — studying in Standards from I to X in government, aided and government-recognised educational institutions for the award of pre-matric scholarships for 2016-17.
A release issued by Collector Sajjansingh R. Chavan said that only those students whose parental/guardian's annual income did not exceed Rs.one lakh were eligible for the scholarship.
Besides, the students should have obtained not less than 50 per cent marks in the previous final exams (except for Standard I), and should not have availed themselves of other scholarships during the year. Students should mention their Aadhaar number while filling in the online application.
Students of Standards from I to X can apply online for fresh scholarship or scholarship renewal from www.scholarships.gov.in and upload the scanned required documents.
After submitting the application online, the printout of the filled-in application should be downloaded and submitted to the institution concerned on or before August 31.
The heads of institutions should verify the applications of students and forward the consolidated list to the District Backward Classes and Minorities Welfare Officer through online, the release added.
