Jharkhand Mukhyamantri Alpsankhyak Coaching Yojana

Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview

The Jharkhand Mukhyamantri Alpsankhyak Coaching Yojana (Jharkhand Chief Minister Minority Coaching Scheme) is a free coaching scheme of the Government of Jharkhand for students from minority communities who want to clear state-level competitive examinations. The Department of Scheduled Tribe, Scheduled Caste, Minority and Backward Class Welfare runs the scheme, and the Jharkhand State Haj Committee, Ranchi, handles its implementation. Under its current batch, the scheme offers completely free offline coaching for the Jharkhand Public Service Commission (JPSC) and the Jharkhand Staff Selection Commission (JSSC) examinations.

The state government started this scheme because many talented minority students cannot afford the high fees of private coaching institutes. The main objective of the Mukhyamantri Alpsankhyak Coaching Yojana is to give financially weak but meritorious minority students access to quality coaching so they can get jobs, receive job-oriented education, and fulfil their career goals. Through modern coaching facilities, the government wants these students to compete on an equal footing with other candidates and succeed in competitive and entrance examinations.

Under the scheme, selected candidates do not pay any fee. They attend regular offline classes from Monday to Friday at Haj House (5th Floor), Kadru, Ranchi, and receive complete study material, weekly and monthly tests, mock tests with performance evaluation, special interview preparation, personality development sessions, and guidance from experienced teachers. The scheme does not provide any cash allowance or stipend; its benefit comes entirely in the form of free coaching services.

The Mukhyamantri Alpsankhyak Coaching Scheme is meant for graduate minority candidates aged 20 to 35 years who hold a Jharkhand domicile certificate and whose guardian earns not more than ₹8 lakh per year. Candidates who already work in any government or private job cannot apply, and a candidate can get the benefit of the scheme a maximum of two times. Admission takes place only through an entrance examination, and applications are accepted online through the e-Kalyan portal and the Jharkhand State Haj Committee website.

Apart from the Jharkhand Mukhyamantri Alpsankhyak Coaching Yojana, the Jharkhand Government also runs other educational welfare schemes for students, including the Jharkhand Chief Minister Merit Scholarship Scheme (CMMSS), which provides financial assistance to meritorious students to support their education, and the Jharkhand Navothan Scholarship Scheme, which aims to help eligible students from disadvantaged communities pursue higher education through scholarship assistance. Interested students can explore the complete details of both schemes here.
