Seekho Kamao Yojana MP — ₹8,000

What is Mukhyamantri Seekho Kamao Yojana?

Mukhyamantri Seekho Kamao Yojana (Chief Minister Learn and Earn Scheme) is a Madhya Pradesh government scheme launched in 2023 that provides on-the-job training to educated youth at private companies while paying them a monthly stipend. The idea is: the youth learns a skill at a company, gets paid while learning, and may even get a job offer at the end.

The scheme targets 1 lakh youth per year and covers over 700 types of work across all sectors — IT, engineering, hospitality, healthcare, retail, media, arts, and more.

Monthly Stipend

The stipend is paid directly to the youth's bank account for the duration of training (up to 1 year).

75% is paid by the government; 25% is paid by the company. So the youth gets 100% stipend regardless.

Key Benefits

• Monthly stipend of ₹8,000–₹10,000 directly to bank account
• Free on-the-job training at established companies (700+ types of work)
• Certificate from the National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC) or state skill authority after completion
• Possibility of placement — companies may hire after training
• No bond or service obligation — you are free after training
• Training is at the company premises, so you gain real work experience
