Bharatiya Janata Party · Gujarat Legislative Assembly Election 2022
Last updated 18 Oct 2026
What does this status mean?
The term is active and there is no evidence of action or reversal.
Status describes delivery. Confidence describes how strong the available evidence is.
Original manifesto wording
“We will double the amount for the pre-matric scholarship for SC/ST students.”
Our Assessment
Official records confirm pre-matric scholarship programmes for SC and ST students, including central funding released to Gujarat. These establish continued scholarship provision, but not the promised doubling of individual awards. A comparable pre-election rate, revised state order and recipient-level payment schedule were not verified. Existing expenditure or beneficiary totals cannot substitute for evidence that the amount per eligible student doubled.

Why this assessment?
Reviewed
01 · Delivery status
Why pending?
Matching implementation has not been verified; this is an evidence gap, not proof of non-delivery.
02 · Strength of evidence
Why low confidence?
The pledge is clear, but matching implementation records are insufficient.
What would help us reassess?
The documents that could clarify delivery of this commitment.
- Before-and-after award rates, state revision order and payments for both SC and ST students
