The government is also planning to distribute mobile tablets to students of classes 10 and 12 for the academic session 2022-23 for better access to education. The state will soon deposit money in the bank accounts of eligible students through Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) that will cost the government a whopping Rs 190 crore annually.
Not only this but students from classes 9 to 12 will also be included in the free textbook scheme.
Last week, the Uttar Pradesh government increased the DA of their employees from 29 per cent to 31 per cent. The Yogi Adityanath-led government has rolled out the DA hike retrospectively, with effect from July 2021 and said that all previous arrears will be transferred to the employees' Provident Fund account.
