Ministry of Minority Affairs has also implemented various welfare schemes, including various Scholarship schemes,across the country for socio-economic and educational empowerment of the notified minority communities.

The coverage under the Pre-Matric Scholarship Scheme has been revised from 2022-23 and made  applicable  for classes  IX  and  X  only,  since  the  Right  to  Education  (RTE)  Act,  2009 provides for free and compulsory elementary education (classes I to VIII) to each and every child,  irrespective  of  his  religion,  caste  or  sex.  This  has  also  been  done  to  harmonize  the scheme  with  identical  Scholarship  schemes  implemented  by other  Central  Government Ministries.

The Post Matric Scholarship Scheme shall continue to be implemented during 2022-23.

It has been observed that Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) Scheme of UGC and CSIR is open for  students  of  all  social  categories  and  communities  including  minorities.  Further,  students from  minority communities  are  also  covered  under National  Fellowship  Schemes  for Scheduled Castes and OBCs implemented by Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment and National Fellowship Scheme for Scheduled Tribes implemented by Ministry of Tribal Affairs. In  view  of  the  overlap  among  the  aforesaid  Schemes  and  possibilities  of  misuse  and duplication, it has been decided to discontinue the MANF Scheme from 2022-23 onwards. The existing  MANF Fellows  will continue to receive  Fellowships  till the  end  of  their  respective tenure, subject to compliance with the extant guidelines.
