Overview

About ISSFB

Incentive to Saharia Students for B.Ed is a scholarship run by the Tribal Area Development Department of Rajasthan. It has been offered since the 2004-05 session and pays a cash incentive to Saharia students who take up B.Ed teacher training.

The Saharia, also written Sahariya, are one of Rajasthan's notified tribes and are recognised as a Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group. Within the state their population sits mainly in Baran district, in the Kishanganj and Shahbad tehsils. The scheme is open to Saharia students in a regular B.Ed programme, so that more of the community can train and work as teachers.
