Are Indian Students Eligible For Maternity Leave? What The Rules Say
Last Updated: Indian students may get maternity leave under UGC and state rules, with varying durations and conditions to help balance education and motherhood India has laid down various rules regarding maternity leave, most commonly applied to working women. However, when it comes to college and university students, especially those who are married and pursuing postgraduate or doctoral studies, the question of maternity leave is equally important. Understanding the provisions available, including the duration of leave and how to apply, is essential for balancing education and motherhood. How Many Days Of Maternity Leave Can A Student Get? While employed women in India are entitled to six months of paid maternity leave, these rules do not automatically extend to students. However, recognising the needs of student mothers, the University Grants Commission (UGC) and several state governments have introduced policies to support them. UGC Guidelines For Maternity Leave The UGC permits women researchers (MPhil and PhD level) to take up to 240 days (around 8 months) of maternity or childcare leave once during their course. Additionally, the UGC has urged universities to offer maternity leave and related concessions to undergraduate and postgraduate female students, such as: These measures aim to ensure that pregnancy does not interrupt or disadvantage a student's academic progress. Maternal Leave Policy Of Kerala Government Kerala's state universities have specific rules: Female students aged 18 and above are entitled to 60 days of maternity leave. Attendance criteria have been reduced from 75% to 73%. At Kerala University (Thiruvananthapuram), a special order allows female students to resume studies after up to 6 months' leave without needing to re-register, provided a valid medical report is submitted and verified by the college principal. Provision Of Haryana Government (2017) Why Maternity Leave For Students Matters Maternity leave provisions for students help promote equal educational opportunities and support women's empowerment. By allowing students to take necessary time off during pregnancy, institutions help ensure that motherhood does not hinder academic success. Maternity Leave Policy For Students How Can A Student Apply For Maternity Leave? The process may vary by institution, but generally includes the following steps: Review your college or university's maternity leave policy. Consult your department head or college principal. Obtain a medical certificate from a certified doctor. Submit a formal application with leave dates and documentation. Clarify return-to-study requirements, such as attending additional classes or rescheduling exams. Stay updated with the latest education!

Goat grazer from Punjab's Mansa writes his own future, qualifies UGC-NET in English
'Your future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow', Komaldeep Singh, 23, from Boha village of Punjab's Mansa had scribbled in his notebook around seven months ago. For Komaldeep, this journey from grazing goats to scribbling notes, has helped him 'write his own future'. After seven months of hard work, self-study, reading from the internet and jotting handwritten notes, he has successfully cracked UGC-National Eligibility Test (NET), qualifying for recruitment as an assistant professor and admission in PhD. His success comes after shattering several barriers, as he took on the additional responsibility to prepare for the exam along with his routine to graze goats, a primary source of livelihood for this landless, Dalit family who live in their two-room house at Boha. While his father Harjinder Singh is a daily wager at a local brick-kiln earning Rs 300-500 a day, his mother Lakhvir Kaur stitches clothes to make both ends meet. 'For me and my family, our 30 goats mean a lot. In no way, I could have left them and prepared for the exam so I did both. I leave home early morning to graze them in nearby fields and return in the evening. I started carrying my handwritten notes along and would study whenever I got time. At home, I studyed till late in the night. From milking the goats to feeding, I did everything,' says Komaldeep, who has cleared UGC-NET in English subject scoring 140 of 300 marks and 85.06 percentile score. With the family's limited earnings, the costly books were out his bounds. 'My phone helped me a lot. I made own notes from internet,' he says. It was Komaldeep's first attempt at UGC-NET after pursuing Bachelors in Arts and four-year undergraduation from Guru Teg Bahadur College of Education, Dalelwala, Mansa. 'My late grandfather Buta Singh wanted that I should be a teacher, not a doctor or an engineer. He said 'Loki kehan ki Buta Singh da putt master hai (People should say that Buta Singh's son is a teacher). I am just trying to fulfil his dream,' says Komaldeep, now pursuing postgraduation in English from a private college where he got a scholarship. Last year, Komaldeep had also successfully cleared Punjab State Teachers Eligibility Test (PSTET). Rohit Jhamb, who runs a local coaching institute Success Point, says, 'Komaldeep has worked really hard, first for the PSTET and then the UGC-NET. He would consult us sometimes for guidance in syllabus etc.' Missing out on qualifying for Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) by a few points (usually the cut-off is 160-166 out of 300), Komaldeep says: 'I feel it was probably due to lack of proper books and study material.' 'Children in rural Punjab usually run away from English but the reason I got interest in the language since school days was due to my teacher Gurwinder sir,' he says. For Komaldeep, the feat also assumes significance given the district he belongs to. 'The day my result came and I told my parents that I have cleared UGC-NET, they were elated but had no idea that what this exam really meant. People were so happy for me but they asked 'kaahda paper pass kitta' (which exam have you cleared?). Then I explain to them what the paper is and what it means to clear it,' he says. The day Komaldeep got his results, he fed some extra chickpeas and soybean to his goats, and cuddled his youngest and dearest pair- Honey and Mani. 'Saada taan sab kuch ehna naal hi hai (They are our everything),' he says.
