The Uttar Pradesh government has started a big campaign to reconnect 4.92 lakh children with school and provide them the benefits of DBT. This mission is especially for those children who have dropped out of school or are not enrolled in school. Let us know what is the complete plan of the government.
About 4.92 lakh such children have been identified in Uttar Pradesh, whose age is between 6 to 14 years, but they have not yet got the benefit of DBT i.e. Direct Benefit Transfer. The reason is that these children are either not enrolled in school or have left their studies midway. That is why the government is now running a big campaign across the state, so that no child is deprived of government benefits.
The government has specifically used the “Zero Poverty Portal” to identify these children. From here, it was revealed that the bank accounts of the families of many children are either not seeded or the documents of the children are not complete, hence the DBT money could not reach their accounts.
Why is this campaign special?
There were thousands of such children in the state who were left out of the benefits. Now for the first time, they have been directly identified. This is not just a campaign to give money to DBT but it is a big mission to connect those children to school again. The government wants that no child should stay away from studies due to financial or lack of documents. By fixing the direct responsibility of DM and BSA, the pace of work will speed up and accountability will also increase.
What benefits will children get
Children will get DBT on time for uniforms, bags, shoes, socks, sweaters and stationery. Children who have dropped out of school will join studies again. The burden on poor families will reduce because the government will bear a major part of the school-related expenses. In the future, both enrollment and attendance of children will increase. By becoming educated, the future of children will be secured and the condition of the families will also improve.
What will be the responsibility of DM and BSA?
- Preparing an accurate list of all such children in the district.
- Form a team and get verification done in every village and locality.
- Enrolling children in nearby government schools.
- If any child’s Aadhaar, bank account or document is incomplete, then get it completed.
- To see that DBT money is transferred to the children’s accounts at the right time.
