WB Kanyashree Prakalpa Scheme

Share On: Whatsapp


The goal of the West Bengal Kanyashree Prakalpa Yojana is to help girls who come from low-income homes who are unable to pursue higher education owing to financial constraints. The United Nations Department of Worldwide Development and UNICEF have both awarded it international status. The scheme is divided into two parts: an annual scholarship of Rs. 1000 and a one-time gift of Rs. 25,000.

The annual scholarship is available to unmarried females between the ages of 13 and 18 who are enrolled in government-recognized regular or equivalent open school or vocational/technical training programmes. The West Bengal administration just removed the income bar. Every girl is now eligible to apply for the Kanya Prakalpa Scheme.

WB Kanyashree Prakalpa Yojana 2022 Objectives

Kanyashree Prakalpa aspires to improve the status and well-being of girls, particularly those from socioeconomically disadvantaged families, through Conditional Cash Transfers by:

  • Incentivizing them to stay in school for a longer period of time and finish secondary or upper secondary education, or equivalent in technical or vocational streams, provides them with a better footing in both the economic and social worlds.
  • Disincentivize marriage until at least the age of 18, the legal marriage age, hence lowering the chances of early pregnancies, associated risks of mother and infant mortality, and other debilitating health issues, including malnutrition.
  • It was also determined that the Scheme should provide more than simply cash assistance; it should be a way of financial inclusion as well as an empowerment tool for adolescent girls. As a result, the scheme’s rewards are delivered straight to bank accounts in the girls’ names, leaving the decision of how to spend the money in their hands.
  • To reinforce the beneficial effects of greater education and postponed marriages, the initiative also seeks to improve females’ social power and self-esteem through a focused behaviour change communication method. The communication strategy not only raises awareness of the scheme, but also incorporates adolescent-friendly tactics like as events, competitions, and Kanyashree groups, as well as the support of strong female role models to encourage social and psychological empowerment.
