MPTAAS Scholarship 2024 Registration and Procedure

In this article, we shall take a look at the MPTAAS scholarship under the Madhya Pradesh government’s initiative and how one can apply for this MPTAAS scholarship

India has several scheduled tribes as a part of its demographic. These communities live in extreme rural and remote areas and still are yet to fully adapt to the urban and technological advancements in India. The government of Madhya Pradesh has recently launched the MPTAAS scholarship which stands for the Madhya Pradesh Tribal Affairs Automation System scholarship. As part of this program, students who finish their education successfully will be able to get financial rewards. Beneficiaries will get their money by having it deposited directly into their own bank accounts. The government has now launched an online portal to make the process of finding information and applying for the MPTAAS scholarship easier.
