Full guide
What the scheme gives you
The Shram Kalyan Shaikshanik Chatravriti Yojana is a Madhya Pradesh labour-welfare scholarship for the children of registered workers. It helps cover education costs from Class 5 right through to higher and professional study, so that a labourer’s child can keep studying without the family carrying the full cost. The scholarship amount depends on the level of study, and is paid straight into the student’s bank account after approval.
Which levels are covered
The scholarship supports a wide range of study, not just school:
- School — Class 5 to Class 12
- Graduation and post-graduation
- Professional and technical courses — ITI, Polytechnic, PGDCA, DCA, B.E., MBBS, M.Sc.
Who can apply
This is a benefit for workers’ families, so the parent’s employment is the key test. You are eligible if:

- A parent works in an MP factory or institution registered under the Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1982
- No more than two children in the family claim the benefit
- The family has no income-tax payer or government employee, and the parent is not in a managerial post

| Aadhaar authentication failing | Both the student’s and a parent’s Aadhaar must authenticate — check the numbers and names are correct and the linked mobile is active. |
| Not sure if the parent’s employer qualifies | The parent must work in a factory or institution registered under the MP Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1982 — confirm with the employer or the Labour Welfare Board. |
| Scholarship not credited | Payment is by e-transfer after the Welfare Commissioner approves — make sure the student’s bank account and Aadhaar are correctly seeded, and track status on the portal. |
