Guwahati: The Directorate of Welfare of Scheduled Caste & Backward Classes, Assam, has announced the opening of applications for the Pre-Matric Scholarship for Scheduled Caste students in Classes I to VIII for the 2024-25 academic year. This initiative is targeted at students enrolled in government educational institutions across Assam.
Eligible students must be from families with an annual income not exceeding ₹2.50 lakh. To apply, students need to provide a self-attested photocopy of a joint bank account with one parent, a caste certificate, and an annual income certificate issued by the Circle Officer.
