Imphal, September 09 2021:
Students' unions of different colleges have demanded the Minority and Other Backward Classes (MOBC) and Tribal Affairs & Hills (TA&H) departments to release the scholarship amount for minority and OBC students sanctioned by the ministry of social justice at the earliest.
According to separate statements issued by students' unions of DM College of Science, DM College of Arts, Imphal College and Manipur College, they had already approached the government over the same matter and AMSU had also served an ultimatum for releasing the pre and post matric scholarship amounts within 15 days while cautioning of launching agitation if the government fails to release the fund by then.
Demanding early release of the scholarship amount, the statements said that they will support AMSU in the protest.
