Govt Hindi Institute Dimapur Stipend Scheme 2026
This is a state-level scholarship scheme run by Nagaland School Education Department. It started in 2015-16 and gives a fixed monthly cash benefit to students learning Hindi at this institute. Scheme runs every year and there is no change in the benefit amount for 2026. So the monthly support stays at ₹400 per student.
Since the scheme is small in scale, only 150 seats are covered under it in a given session. Students who miss the yearly window have to wait for the next academic year. There is no online form as of now, so the process is fully offline through the institute and district office.
