⚠️ Jodhpur: 870 or 810? Which Figure Is Correct?
There is an important difference between the figures published in the newspaper cutting and the official 2026-27 PDF.
The newspaper cutting mentions:
683 Elementary + 187 Secondary = 870 girls
However, the official 2026-27 PDF lists:
623 Elementary + 187 Secondary = 810 girls
| Source | Elementary | Secondary | Total |
|---|---|---|---|
| Newspaper Report | 683 | 187 | 870 |
| Official 2026-27 PDF | 623 | 187 | 810 |
Therefore, when publishing the information on a website or blog, the official government PDF should be given priority, and the Jodhpur figure should be mentioned as 810 beneficiaries.

📝 How to Apply for Rajasthan Divyang Girls Stipend 2026-27?
This scheme does not appear to follow the same process as a typical scholarship where a student simply visits an open portal and submits an online application independently.
The official guidelines describe an application and verification process at the school level. The guidelines also include a format for the “Application Form for Stipend Allowance (Stipend for Girls)” issued by the Rajasthan School Education Council.
Step-by-Step Application Process
Step 1:The student should be studying in an eligible government school in Rajasthan.
Step 2:Her CWSN/disability-related records should be correctly available in the school and departmental records.
Step 3:The student or parent/guardian should contact the Head of School/Principal or concerned CWSN in-charge.
Step 4:The school will verify the student's eligibility and records.
Step 5:Eligible beneficiary details will be forwarded according to the departmental procedure.
Step 6:After completing the required bank and DBT-related process, the approved stipend will be provided through DBT.
📅 Has the Application Last Date Been Released?
The available Stipend for Girls 2026-27 guideline does not specify a separate “Online Application Last Date” for general student applications.
Therefore, this scheme should not be treated like a regular online scholarship application that depends solely on a publicly announced last date.
Eligible students and their parents should contact their school and ensure that the CWSN record, disability certificate, Aadhaar/Jan Aadhaar and bank/DBT details are correctly recorded and verified.
