NSP Scholarship Disability Category Correction – Complete Guide

Introduction

The NSP Scholarship Disability Category Correction process is important for Divyang students because incorrect disability details can delay verification or even lead to rejection. Applications marked defective often require correction within a limited time window, especially when documents or category details are wrong.

Many students do not realize that editing is only allowed before final submission or when the application is marked defective by authorities.

This guide explains every scenario clearly so that students can fix mistakes safely.
