The Government Sponsored Scheme “National Means-cum-Merit Scholarship Scheme (NMMS)” was first launched in May 2008. The scheme was designed to provide financial assistance for those who are economically backward but are exceptionally good at studies. In one of the research done by NSSO the dropout rate was high in secondary school (9th class - 10th class) which is nearly 17% than that of elementary and upper secondary. So the Indian government had taken an initiative to slow down this trend. students whose parents income is less than 1.5 LPA are eligible for the scholarship to utilize this benefit. The State Bank of India will fork out money directly to their bank accounts.
It's an Indian government initiative to support talented young individuals who are economically disadvantaged. The government has created a platform to enhance the children 's career prospects by providing financial assistance in terms of scholarship at their secondary and higher secondary levels. Even though it’s a central government initiative, the state government looks after the process and selects the students according to the eligibility criteria of NMMS scholarship.
