Education
To secure children’s education, the PMO stated, Children under 10 years will be granted admission in Kendriya Vidyalaya or a private school as a day scholar. Children between 11-18 years of age will be granted admission to any central government residential school such as Sainik School and Navodaya Vidyalaya. However, if there is a case where the child remains under the care of a guardian or extended family, then the child shall be admitted to the nearest Kendriya Vidyalaya or in a private school as a day scholar. For those children who be aspiring for higher education, assistance will be given for arranging the loan for professional courses or higher education in India. The interest on that loan will be paid from the PM-CARES fund. For those children admitted to a private school, fees (as prescribed under the Right to Education Act norms) will be granted from the PM-CARES fund, other all expenditures such as uniforms and textbooks will be also paid from the PM-CARES fund.
