What this scheme offers
Run through the Sewayojan portal — Uttar Pradesh's official employment exchange since 2015 — this scheme pays educated, registered job-seekers a monthly allowance while they look for work, alongside genuine job-matching support: SMS alerts for openings, invitations to Rojgar Mela job fairs held across all 75 districts, and placement assistance. It's meant as a bridge, not a destination — the allowance stops the moment you report finding employment.
