Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, on Saturday, February 17, 2024, said the State government would grant life-time recognition to minority educational institutions in Tamil Nadu.
Addressing a meeting of the Tamil Nadu Minorities Welfare Board, he said this had been a long-pending demand of minority institutions, and the State government had brought out an order on February 2, 2024, for the issuing of permanent minority status certificates to all minority educational institutions. These certificates would not have any fixed time limits.
Mr. Stalin said the Minorities Welfare Minister had already launched a web portal by the T.N. e-Governance Agency (TNeGA) to simplify the procedure for the issuing of minority status certificates to educational institutions run by minorities.
