Interest-free coaching loan for martyr wards

The promise was an interest-free education loan up to Rs 5 lakh for competitive-exam coaching for wards of soldiers martyred in the line of duty. I found no approved-source evidence of such a state interest-free loan scheme. However, related coaching support exists: the KSB Guidebook 2025 lists a Rs 20,000 one-time grant for UPSC, PCS and UKSSSC coaching for ESM, and small coaching support for dependents of martyrs and war-disabled soldiers; the Uttarakhand Soldier Welfare site also surfaced a 2025 Super-100 free IIT JEE and NEET residential coaching notice with special preference for army kids. This partially serves the coaching-support objective, but not the loan quantum, beneficiary class, or full exam basket promised. Budget status: no loan corpus or interest-subvention allocation found.
