About the role
The Assam OBC Scholarship 2026 is a targeted financial assistance initiative managed by the Directorate of Welfare of SC & OBC, Assam. Designed to support students from Other Backward Classes (OBC), Economically Backward Classes (EBC), and Denotified Tribes (DNT/S-NT), this scheme aims to remove financial barriers that often lead to school dropouts. The program covers both Pre-Matric and Post-Matric levels, ensuring that students can pursue everything from secondary schooling to advanced professional degrees without the burden of educational costs.
