Chhattisgarh Safai Karmkar Ke Bachche Hetu Chhatravrtti Yojana

Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview

The Chhattisgarh Safai Karmakar Ke Bachche Hetu Chhatravrtti Yojana is a scholarship scheme of the Chhattisgarh government that helps registered sanitation workers educate their children. It is run by the Chhattisgarh Unorganised Workers' State Social Security Board under the state Labour Department. Sanitation work falls within the unorganised sector, which usually means no pension, provident fund, or education allowance that formal-sector employees take for granted. So when school fees, uniforms, books, or college costs pile up, it is often the child's education that gets cut first. This scheme is one of the board's answers to that problem: it treats the education of a safai karmakar's children as a shared responsibility of the state rather than a burden the family must carry alone.

In practical terms, once a sanitation worker is registered with the board, the board pays an annual scholarship of ₹1,000 up to ₹15,000 for that worker's school- or college-going children. The amount is not flat - it rises as the child moves from primary school to higher and professional education, so the support scales with the family's growing costs. The benefit is available to up to two children of a registered worker and is intended as need-based support tied to genuine enrolment, not as a prize reserved only for top scorers. This design lets an ordinary, steady student stay in school and still count on the money.

This is a live, active scheme rather than a dormant announcement. As of mid-2026, the Chhattisgarh Labour Department reported that its worker-welfare schemes disbursed roughly ₹800 crore between January 2024 and June 2026, benefiting around 17.82 lakh workers across the state, with education support and scholarships still running.
