CM Nischay Scheme for Graduate: Nischay Self-Employment Scheme: The Bihar government has broadened the scope of the Chief Minister's Nischay Self-Employment Allowance Scheme to support young individuals in becoming self-reliant and aid them in their job search.

Bihar Nischay Scheme Expansion: Graduate Unemployed To Get Allowance

The scheme provided benefits exclusively to unemployed youth who had completed their intermediate (12th) education. However, the government has now extended the scheme's coverage to include graduate youth, offering them a monthly stipend for two years.
