This initiative focuses on health, educational inclusion, and welfare, addressing the neglect faced by children of migrant workers who often miss out on formal education due to frequent relocations and lack of essential documentation.

Significant Initiative

Launched in May 2025 during a public outreach campaign for enrolling migrant children in educational institutions, the 'Jyoti Scheme' coincides with the fourth anniversary of the Kerala government. This initiative represents a crucial policy step towards integrating migrant communities into the social mainstream through education.

Primary Objectives

The primary goal is to incorporate the children of migrant workers into Kerala's formal education system.

Additionally, it aims to promote inclusive development, ensuring access to healthcare, schooling, and welfare programs.

Furthermore, the scheme seeks to guarantee educational continuity even after seasonal migration.

Key Features

Children aged between 3 to 6 years will be enrolled in anganwadis.

For those aged 6 years and above, admission will be provided in government schools.
