The selected candidates will receive JRF contingency much like that of CSIR/UGC during their Ph.D programme. Per the criteria of the fellowship, if the candidate qualifies for JRF within one year, the university will provide 5000 rs in addition to the JRF scholarship as an added bonus. If the candidate has not qualified for JRF/NET, then the university will provide fellowship to the student at the same rate as JRF for the first year. It is expected that the student clears JRF the following year.

If the candidate fails to clear JRF from the 2nd year, then the fellowship amount will be reduced by 50%. If the candidate receives PMRF at any stage in during their Ph.D, then the university will not provide a top-up fellowship. The candidates joining the Annie Besant fellowship are expected to complete their Ph.Ds within the given time period of four years.

The scheme has been launched under the Institution of Excellence – BHU programme. The last date to apply for this fellowship is Friday, 5th of August, 2022.

Students fulfilling a set of criteria will be selected for the programme. A few of the criteria include their academic record and overall performance, stated BHU’s assistant PRO Chandra Shekhar Gwari. Students who qualify the criteria and are selected for the program will be rewarded 40,000 rupees per month along with rent allowance.

Additional factors like money and experience have been able to entice students for this program. The official notice of the university states “Engaging PhD students in teaching will help them acquire and demonstrate skills in leadership, people management and project management, which may otherwise be difficult to obtain. Students who have submitted or are expected to submit a thesis (within 6 years of the date of admission, not the registration date) will be eligible to apply for the scheme.” The university went on to state “Those selected for the fellowship will be involved in teaching (independent course/involvement in a laboratory classroom, etc) in the University, its associated colleges and schools including nearby underprivileged schools.” The university came up with the idea of students teaching during the interim period in the interest of the university and the society as well, the university stated.
