Subsistence and Transport Allowance to Disabled Students in Madhya Pradesh
Money problems stop many students with disabilities from finishing a professional course. Travel alone eats up a big part of the monthly budget. This scheme handles both sides, the fee and the daily cost of reaching college, so a student can stay in the course till the end.
Benefit goes only to students of government colleges in Madhya Pradesh. Private college students are not covered. Payment reaches the student through DBT payment into the bank account linked with Aadhaar, so the account details must be correct and active.

How to Apply
There is no separate online form only for this scheme. Applications open when Directorate of Higher Education releases the notice for the session, and the college helps with the paperwork.
STEP 1 - Watch the official website of Higher Education Department at highereducation.mp.gov.in and the notice board of your college for the scheme notice of the running session.
STEP 2 - Collect the application form from the scholarship section of your college, or download it from the department notice if it is given there.
STEP 3 - Fill in your name, course, college code, disability certificate number, bank account number and IFSC exactly as written in the passbook, since a wrong account number is the most common reason payment fails.
STEP 4 - Attach self-attested copies of the required documents and submit the form in your college office within the last date given in the notice.
STEP 5 - College forwards the file to the Regional Additional Director, who checks the details and approves it. After approval the fee reimbursement and monthly allowance come into your bank account through DBT payment.
