A separate budget and proposal for monitoring and disseminating the schemes. The government has invited applications from agencies to monitor and report back the progress so as to reach maximum benefit.
Merit-cum-means scholarship 20000 scholarships every year, maintenance allowance of Rs. 10,000 for hostlers and 5000 for day scholars plus the course fee up to Rs. 20,000
Post-matric scholarship: Students with just 50 per cent marks from the minority community can get this scholarship amount up to Rs. 10,000.
All these schemes and provisions would have been fine if the money came from the party funds of the UPA allies. That it goes from the tax paid by Indians, a category the UPA does not probably recognise any more, is objectionable.
