In accordance with the Ministry of Education and the Department of Higher Education, the Chairman of the Nagaland Board of School Education (NBSE) has informed all concerned parties about the recent approval of the Central Sector Scheme, PM-Vidyalaxmi, by the Union Cabinet on November 6, 2024.

The PM-Vidyalaxmi scheme aims to provide financial support to meritorious students seeking admission in India’s top 860 quality higher education institutions (QHEIs). The scheme will facilitate the easy availability of collateral and guarantee-free education loans for over 22 lakh students admitted to these institutions every year. Additionally, students with family incomes of up to Rs. 8 lakh will receive a 3% interest subvention on their education loans.

The scheme builds on the existing PM-Uchchatar Shiksha Protsahan (PM-USP) Scheme, which provides credit guarantee cover for loans up to Rs. 7.5 lakh and full interest subvention for technical courses to students with a family income of up to Rs. 4.5 lakh.

The PM-Vidyalaxmi scheme, together with PM-USP, will offer comprehensive support to deserving students who wish to pursue higher education in India’s top-tier institutions. A dedicated portal is being developed by the Department of Higher Education to ensure a transparent, simple, and entirely digital process for students applying for financial support.

The NBSE has urged heads of educational institutions to raise awareness about the PM-Vidyalaxmi scheme, emphasizing the importance of eliminating financial barriers to higher education.

  1. Does your website have a contact page? I’m having problems locating it but, I’d like to send you an e-mail. I’ve got some ideas for your blog you might be interested in hearing. Either way, great site and I look forward to seeing it improve over time.

  2. Great post here. One thing I would like to say is the fact that most professional job areas consider the Bachelor’s Degree just as the entry level standard for an online education. Though Associate Qualifications are a great way to start, completing your Bachelors opens many doorways to various employment goodies, there are numerous on-line Bachelor Course Programs available from institutions like The University of Phoenix, Intercontinental University Online and Kaplan. Another thing is that many brick and mortar institutions offer Online versions of their degree programs but generally for a significantly higher charge than the organizations that specialize in online diploma plans.

  3. Hello there, simply become aware of your weblog thru Google, and found that it is truly informative. I am going to watch out for brussels. I抣l appreciate should you continue this in future. Numerous other people will be benefited out of your writing. Cheers!
