Stipends to the Students

| Mining labour is a low paid class of the society and it is hardly possible for it to educate its children in a proper way. Since the education is provided free of cost to miners’ children in MLW Schools in addition to provision of books and uniform, the miners’ children studying at different institutions other than MLW schools and post-matriculation classes are granted stipends on annual basis at a rate of: |
- Pre-Matric @ Rs.3000 P.A.
- Post-Matric @Rs.9600 P.A.
- Graduation & Post Graduation @ Rs.12000 to 18000 P.A. (Medical/Engineering/M.A/M.Sc.)
- Higher Education @ Rs.24000 P.A.
|
Provision of Uniform
|
| The Mines Labour Welfare Organization provides uniform to miners’ children with a view to fulfill their education needs detailed as follows: |
- Shalwar Qameez – Khaki (for boys and girls)
- Jersey (for boys and girls)
- Pair of Socks (for boys and girls)
