The move concerns the family annual income eligibility limit for trainees who seek support under free training programmes. The available information does not specify the revised income limit or the date from which any change will apply.

However, details about the eligible courses, application process, number of beneficiaries and implementing department are not available in the supplied information.

Students and families will need the formal government notification for the exact annual income ceiling, eligibility conditions and application requirements. The available material also does not state whether the limit has been increased, reduced or otherwise revised.
Conclusion
The Dhami government has taken a step concerning the family annual income eligibility limit for SC and ST trainees under free training programmes, with the stated aim of supporting employment opportunities. Further official details are needed to explain the precise change and its implementation.
