Aadhaar card is now made mandatory by Human Resource and Development ministry to apply and claim the scholarships which are under Central Sector Scholarship Scheme for all the college and university students.
The candidates who are receiving the scholarships currently will also require Aadhaar card, candidates without Aadhar card must enrol themselves in Aadhaar Facilitation Centres present across the country by 30th June 2017. According to reports making Aadhar mandatory removes the compulsion to submit multiple documents.
However, until students get their Aadhar card, they may get scholarships on the basis of documents like Aadhaar Enrolment ID slip, Aadhaar enrolment application, voter identity card, PAN card etc.
The notification shall come into effect from the date of its publication in all states except Jammu and Kashmir.
Similar provisions have also been made in the notification related to the Means-cum-Merit Scholarship Scheme for schoolchildren.
