UP Scholarship 2026-27 Kya Hai?

UP Scholarship — jise Saksham Portal bhi kehte hain — Uttar Pradesh government ki ek flagship financial aid scheme hai jo economically weaker families ke students ko padhai jaari rakhne mein financial help deti hai. Ise teen departments milkar chalate hain:

• Social Welfare Department — General aur SC/ST students ke liye
• Backward Classes Welfare Department — OBC students ke liye
• Minority Welfare Department — Muslim, Christian, Sikh, Buddhist, Jain aur Parsi students ke liye

Scholarship mein do tarah ki financial help milti hai:

• Fee Reimbursement — College ya school ki actual tuition fees seedha government pay karti hai
• Maintenance Allowance — Monthly stipend — books, stationery aur daily expenses ke liye

Pura paisa Aadhaar-linked bank account mein DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer) ke through aata hai — koi beechaula nahi.

Eligibility aur Income Limit — Category Wise

Category	Annual Family Income Limit	Minimum Marks (Fresh)
SC (Scheduled Caste)	₹2,50,000 tak	Koi minimum marks nahi

• Isi OTR number se fresh aur renewal dono applications hoti hain
• OTR mein details Aadhaar se auto-fill hoti hain
• Agar pichle saal se OTR ban chuka hai — wahi purana OTR number use karein

Common Problems Aur Unka Solution

1. "Pending at Institute" Status
Matlab school ya college ne abhi forward nahi kiya. Apne college ke scholarship nodal officer se milein aur request karein ki forwarding deadline se pehle forward karein. Application submit karna kaafi nahi — institution verification zaroori hai.

2. Payment Bounce Ho Gayi
Check karein ki bank account Aadhaar se seeded (linked) hai ya nahi. Account active aur DBT-enabled hona chahiye. Apni bank branch mein jakar NPCI Aadhaar seeding confirm karein.

3. Password ya Registration Number Bhool Gaye
Portal par "Forgot Registration Number" ya "Forgot Password" option use karein. Mobile number aur date of birth daalkar recover kar sakte hain. Mobile number active hona zaroori hai.

4. Form Mein Correction Chahiye
Submit ke baad khud edit nahi kar sakte. College ke nodal officer se request karein ki application "Defective" mark kare — tab correction ka ek mauka milta hai.

5. "Approved" Hai Lekin Paisa Nahi Aaya
Approved hone ke baad official payment window mein paisa aata hai. Upar payment schedule dekhen. PFMS portal par track karein. Agar window nikal gayi aur paisa nahi aaya toh DWO (District Welfare Office) se contact karein.

6. Double Benefit Flag Aaya
NSP aur Saksham dono par apply karne par yeh hota hai. Dono applications reject ho jaati hain. Ek hi portal use karein — dono par simultaneously apply mat karein.
