Scholarship to Poor Students supports economically weak learners at Uttarakhand Sanskrit University by covering their tuition fee. This state scheme, run by the Department of Sanskrit Education, Government of Uttarakhand, picks one deserving student from each undergraduate and postgraduate class who has the lowest family income among their peers.
