Top 5 Government Education Schemes

Since Independence, Indian Government is continuously striving to fulfill basic needs i.e. food, shelter, health and education. But even after 65 years of independence, government is still struggling and unable to augment the living standard of its citizens. According to 2010 data from the United Nations Development Programme, approximately 29.8% of Indians live below the country's national poverty line. There are lots of Government Schemes to bring a difference but inefficient because of mass involvement.

One of the most important basic needs that can change the complete scenario is ‘Education’ and government is running lots of Education Schemes to improve the statistics. But unfortunately, due to lack of awareness people are unable to take advantage of those schemes. Kiran Seva Nyas has taken an initiative to make people aware of the government schemes through SearchSchemes It’s an effort to involve educated segment of the society in spreading the information to the right people and bringing a revolution.

Search Schemes is a platform where information of all the schemes is provided on a single platform. Following are the Top 5 Government Education Schemes –
