Restore student scholarships for children of workers, demands AIDSO

All India Democratic Students Organisation (AIDSO) has urged the State government to restore student scholarships for children of workers.

The government has reduced the amount under scholarships to between ₹1,000 and ₹11,000 from the earlier ₹5,000 and ₹60,000. This is anti-student and anti-worker. The amount should not only be restored but also increased, they said in a memorandum to the government.

A copy of the memorandum was submitted to the Additional Deputy Commissioner Vijay Kumar Honkeri in Belagavi on Friday.
