Kanyashree Prakalpa is one of the most cherished schemes of the Government of West Bengal for Un-married girls of classes VIII-XII within the age group 13-18 years.
Annual scholarship “K1” and one time grant “K2” under “Kanyashree” have been fixed by Govt. Initially the uploading of forms was satisfactory but right now the process has been slowed down due to non availability of filled in forms.
The span of date of birth for Annual Scholarship is now from 02.10.1995 to 31.12.2000 and that for One Time Grant is from 14.04.1995 to 31.12.1995 i.r.o. Kanyashree Prakolpo. It will increase subsequently in the next month and so.
Kanyashree is a revolutionary project with the potential for checking child marriages; encouraging girls education and enhancing nutrition of adolescent girls.
