Government Schemes for education or career is an opportunity, which shouldn’t be missed and should be talked about widely, however it doen’t reach the deserving people on time, so to spread awareness of govt schemes for disabled persons, aka differently abled, persons, this post highlights the schemes for students who deserve to shine and rise in their career.
And on International Day of Persons with Disabilities, there’s no better time to spread awareness and make sure this information reaches the families who need it most.
Even one share can change someone’s life.
1. Saksham Scholarship Scheme (AICTE)
This is one of the most impactful scholarships for specially-abled students who want to pursue technical education.
It covers up to ₹50,000 per year to support tuition, books, appliances, laptops, or assistive devices.
A huge boost for students dreaming of engineering, technology or diploma courses.
2. Pre-Matric & Post-Matric Scholarship for Students with Disabilities
These scholarships support students from Class 9 all the way up to post-graduation.
They help with tuition fees, study materials, transport allowance, allowances for scribes, hostel benefits and more.
For many families, this scholarship ensures their child doesn’t have to pause their education due to financial constraints.
3. Inclusive Education Support under Samagra Shiksha
This scheme focuses on children with special needs studying in regular schools.
It provides assistive devices, learning aids, accessible classroom resources, readers/scribes, transportation support, and even therapeutic services in some states.
The goal is simple: no child should be left behind.
4. Aids & Assistive Devices Support (ADIP Scheme)
From wheelchairs to hearing aids, braille kits to motorized tricycles — the ADIP scheme helps students access important assistive devices that make daily learning smoother and more independent.
This support is especially meaningful for children in rural and underserved areas.

A family receives much-needed financial support
A dream stays alive
And that’s powerful.
