Hostel Scheme for Disabled Students

The "Hostel Scheme for Disabled Students" scheme was started by the Social Justice and Empowerment of Persons with Disabilities Department, Government of Madhya Pradesh on 08.09.2008. The objective of the scheme is to provide hostel facilities to such disabled students who are taking admission in class 11th and above on a regular basis and in case of hostel facilities are not available in schools/colleges, by renting private buildings. Under this scheme, the expenditure on electricity and water in each hostel will be borne by the government at the rate of ₹1,000/- per month. If the expenditure is more than this, the additional amount will be borne equally by the students. Only house rent, electricity, and water tax shall be borne by the Social Justice Department. Utensils, equipment, furniture, ration, water, cleaning, newspaper, sweeper, etc. rest of the arrangements will have to be made by the students themselves. The Department has no liability for this.
