Odisha Govt Extends Deadline for Laptop DBT Financial Assistance Applications

Bhubaneswar: In a recent announcement, the Higher Education Department of the Government of Odisha has urged students to take advantage of the extended deadline for submitting online applications for financial assistance under the Laptop Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) Scheme.

The original deadline for applications under the Laptop DBT Scheme for the years 2022 and 2023 was fast approaching, prompting the department to extend the submission deadline to February 5, 2024.
