Uniform Assistance for Economically Backward Class Students Studying in Class 1st to 8th(UAEBCSOE)
Overview
About UAEBCSOE
Uniform Assistance for Economically Backward Class Students Studying in Class 1st to 8th is a Government of Gujarat scheme run by the Social Justice and Empowerment Department. It helps primary and upper primary students from economically backward classes in the state meet the cost of their school uniforms.
The benefit is cash assistance towards uniforms, paid to children studying in Standard 1 through Standard 8. The intent is practical: to ease education costs for economically weaker families and keep attendance from slipping because a uniform is out of reach.
The scheme sits within a wider set of Gujarat uniform-assistance schemes that separately cover socially and educationally backward class, minority, and nomadic and denotified tribe students; this one is the economically backward class stream. Applications run through the state's welfare channels, and the amount payable follows the department's current guidelines.
