Congress MLC Mr. Mohammad Farooq Husain sent a letter to Minority Affairs Minister Mr. Salman Khursheed and appealed to extend the date of submission of scholarship forms for further 15 days.
He stated in the letter that the last date to submit applications is July 15, while minority students of the state face a lot of difficulties in obtaining income certificates and opening bank accounts.
Hence the date should be extended till July 30. He told that if the last date is not extended, the budget allotted to scholarships will go back to government treasury.
