Rajasthan Vidhwa/Parityakta Mukhyamantri Sambal Yojana

Scheme Introduction: A Brief Overview

The Rajasthan Vidhwa/Parityakta Mukhyamantri Sambal Yojana (CMSY) is a welfare scheme by the Government of Rajasthan that reimburses the course and tuition fees for widowed and deserted (divorced/abandoned) women pursuing teacher training courses like B.Ed. or D.El.Ed. (BSTC) in the state. The scheme runs in two parts: the D.El.Ed. (BSTC) Sambal Yojana, implemented by the Directorate of Elementary Education, Bikaner, and the Vidhwa/Parityakta Mukhyamantri (B.Ed.) Sambal Yojana, implemented by the Department of College Education (Higher Education Department), Rajasthan.

The Vidhwa/Parityakta Mukhyamantri Sambal Scheme aims to provide "sambal" (support) to widows and deserted women by reimbursing the fees they pay for their teacher-training course, so money does not stop them from becoming qualified teachers and building a self-reliant life.

Under the D.El.Ed. component, eligible women studying in private teacher-training institutions of Rajasthan receive a teaching-fee reimbursement of ₹9,000. In contrast, under the B.Ed. component, the state government reimburses the fee payable for the B.Ed. course to eligible women studying in government and private B.Ed. colleges of the state. In both parts, the applicant must be a widow or a deserted/divorcee woman and must confirm through an affidavit that she has not remarried. B.Ed. applicants must also maintain 75% attendance, must not receive any other scholarship, and must hold a Jan Aadhaar card.

The application method differs for each component. D.El.Ed. trainees submit their application in the prescribed format to the head of their teacher-training institution, and they fill out the form on the CMSY (ShalaDarpan) portal. B.Ed. trainees apply online through their SSO ID on the Higher Education scholarship portal, or through an e-Mitra kiosk. The college head attests and forwards the B.Ed. application online to the district nodal officer, who verifies it and sends it with a recommendation to the Commissioner, College Education, Jaipur.

In the latest update, application windows for both programmes remain open. According to a CMSY portal notice dated 7 September 2026, online applications for D.El.Ed. are being accepted from 8 September 2026 to 8 October 2026. Meanwhile, the Higher Education Department has activated its scholarship portal from 1 October 2026 to 30 November 2026 for the Vidhwa/Parityakta Mukhyamantri (B.Ed.) Sambal Yojana, along with other state scholarships. D.El.Ed. applicants have only a few days remaining and are therefore advised to complete the process without further delay.

In the same direction, the Rajasthan Government also runs the Rajasthan Vidya Sambal Yojana, under which guest faculty are appointed in government schools and colleges to address the shortage of teachers. In addition, through the Rajasthan Mukhyamantri Vidhwa Sahayata Yojana, widows, deserted and divorced women are provided with a monthly pension and financial assistance.
