Scholarship Rains for Muslim Students

[Ahamed Thambi]

The months of June & July are probably two months of the year in which most of the Government Scholarships for Minority Students open; and it happens year after year - and yet the number of Muslim Students applying for it increases by fractions compared to the scholarships available. The Government of India, in the past 5 years has more than doubled the scholarships after Justice Sacchar Committee report.

Mass awareness of the various scholarship schemes is the need of the hour in our community. Lots of parent and students worry and say that we applied for it but didn't receive any funds or some just blame the system that the Babus in the Minority Department demanded "suvidha shulk" or bribe amount to process the scholarship. Well for all these parents and students, I can say that Why don't they apply the Scholarships Online; because once they submit the various documents online and get a application Id generated - then no one can stop them from getting scholarship. And for all those who come across "suvidha shulk" problem - they can contact me; and we will try our best to help them out InshaAllah.

I have compiled details of various Government scholarship schemes available to the students (from Class 1 to College):

I will appreciate it, if we can all do our part and spread this awareness to as many as possible. May Allah reward and bless us all.
