What happens if the girl doesn't take the 10th standard exam?
This is a biggie because the scheme ties its maturity benefits to education. To claim the fixed deposit (whether it’s Rs 50,000 for one girl or Rs 25,000 per girl for two), the girl must appear for her 10th standard public exam. It’s like the government’s way of saying, “We’re investing in your future, but you’ve got to hit the books!” If she doesn’t take the exam, the maturity amount might not be released, which would be a real bummer after years of waiting. The good news? The scheme provides Rs 1,800 annually from the sixth year to help with school expenses, so there’s support to keep her on track. If there’s a special circumstance (like health issues), contact the District Social Welfare Office to see if exceptions can be made.
