Tribal development Plans

Bicycle Distribution Scheme

This Scheme has been started by Jharkhand Government to encourage girl students belonging to SC, ST, Minorities, and BPL families to go to schools and continue their studies. This plan was started by the state government for the following two reasons: –

  • The distance between the school & their houses being too much, the family members have difficulties in sending their girls to school.
  • After passing the middle level school many girl students of the villages discontinue their studies due to lack of transportation facilities. Purpose: The purpose of this plan is to stop the girl students belonging to the SC, ST, Minorities and BPL families from discontinuing their studies in high school stage due to distances between their villages & the high school. Structure: Initially the plan of providing bicycles free of cost to the girl students belonging to SC, ST, Minorities and BPL studying in class VIIIth, IXth, and Xth was started in the year 2002-2003. Later girl students of only class VIII of the target group are being benefited. Process: In order to get the benefit of this plan the application is to be sent through the concerned principal to the District Welfare Officer from where the bicycles are distributed.
