Kerala Governor Arif Mohammad Khan has said in his policy address that the government has proposed various important programmes for the backward classes in the State.
This includes subsidies for loans through the ‘Awakening’ (Unarv) project, rehabilitation and support of street vendors and retailers, ‘Ayya Vaikunda Traditional Employment Innovation Centre’, and the ‘Renaissance Scholarship for Girls’ (Navodhana Scholarship).
The Navodhana Scholarship Scheme would be implemented for OBC Girls, who are studying in medical and medical-allied courses, who have lost a parent or both and the annual family income does not exceed 2.5 lakh.
