Transport Voucher Facility

The Transport Voucher Facility aims to provide easy access to quality primary education for children aged 6-14 years living in sparsely populated areas where schools cannot be operated as per the prescribed standards. Since the academic year 2017-18, this scheme has been implemented for students from classes 1 to 8 in rural areas. Additionally, to increase enrollment rates for girls in education and reduce the gender gap, girls studying in classes 9 to 12 are also benefitted from this scheme. The transport voucher is provided to students who are enrolled in government schools and live beyond specified distances from their schools.

• Financial assistance for transportation based on distance from school
• Encourages enrollment and retention of students, especially girls
• Supports access to education in rural areas

Students enrolled in government schools in rural areas:

• For classes 1 to 5: Children living more than 1 km from the nearest government primary school.
• For classes 6 to 8: Children living more than 2 km from the nearest government upper primary school.
• For classes 9 to 12: Girls coming from more than 5 km to study in government secondary/senior secondary schools.
