Apunba Imagi Maheiroi Sinpanglup (AIMS) has demanded the government to release the scholarship amount for MOBC, ST and SC students, which have been pending since last year.
In a statement, AIMS said that people of the state have been facing severe socio-economic crisis due to Covid-19 pandemic since March last year and students are among the group worst affected by the disease outbreak.
With deadlines for admissions in different colleges and universities approaching, several students are on the verge of losing their academic year due to financial issues and releasing the pending scholarship amount would provide the much needed relief to them, the statement said while reiterating its demand for early release of the pending amount.
