Mohali: On one hand, the Punjab's Bhagwant Mann government has released
around Rs 221 crore of its share for the students studying under post
matric scholarship (PMS) progrma for the session 2022-23. At the same
time Rs 183 crores have also been released for the pending scholarship
pertaining to the years 2017-18, 2018-19, 2019-20 which was pending for
the last five years. The government is very much concerned about the
education of scheduled caste students.
This was said by Dr. Baljit Kaur, Minister for Social Security, Woman &
Child Development, Punjab while inaugurating the scholarship mela
organized by Aryans Group of Colleges, Chandigarh & Aryans Overseas in
association with Gurukul Education Welfare Society, Fazilka. Dr. Anshu
Kataria, Chairman, Aryans Group was Guest of Honour.
While expressing Gratitude to the Minister, Dr. Anshu Kataria said that
under her visionary guidance earlier also we have organised such
scholarship mela to choose needy & deserving students of Abohar,
Malout, Fazilka etc. Today we have selected around 50 students
belonging to categories including General & SC/ ST to study in Aryans
Group of Colleges in various job oriented courses including B.Tech, Law,
Pharma, Nursing, Paramedical, Management, Education, BA Computer
Science etc.
Dr. Baljit Kaur further said that Aryans Group has opened the door for the
students who belong to backward region like Malout, Abohar, Muktsar
etc. to study in Chandigarh. I am happy to mention that Aryans Group has
visited my constituency and my surrounding areas to guide and aware
the students towards Job oriented program on scholarship basis. Earlier
also I have attended scholarship event of Aryans, mentioned Dr. Baljit
Kaur.
Sh. Bhura Ram said that it's the dream of every student to study in
Chandigarh, who belong to the border area of Abohar, Fazilka etc. But
due to lack of money the students cannot afford the high fee structure of
many educational institutions. In this program, SC/ ST students would be
given free education while on the other hand General students have also
been selected for partial scholarship as per Govt rules. I am thankful for
the initiative of Chairman, Aryans Group.
Around 50 eligible students were selected under the SC / ST Scholarship
Scheme scholarship letters were distributed. After getting the scholarship
letters, the students said that they are thankful to Aryans Group for doing
virtuous work by giving admission under Scholarship Scheme on zero fee
basis. The students assured that they will illuminate not only their
parents but also the name of Aryans in academics.
