A similar application may be developed for pre- and post-matric scholarship and integrated social security schemes run by the social welfare department so that the beneficiaries are able to track the scholarship and pension disbursement details.
The app is available on the main page of JKPaySys, while the instructions for installation and use of the app are available on the JKPaySys portal. It is only available on the Android platform.
