Sir,
Kindly refer to the news report “Scholarship granted to 8745 students under PMSSS: Naeem” published in this paper dated April 7, 2015. In this context, I as a student as well as a citizen am to say that replying to a Calling Attention Notice (CAN) of Quiser Jamsheed Lone in the Legislative Council on April 6, the Minister for Education, Naeem Akhtar has inter-alia said that at present students from J&K are provided Scholarship for pursuing different professional, general degree courses in various colleges under the Prime Minister’s Special Scholarship Scheme (PMSSS) as 8745 students of the State stand granted the Scholarship so far.
But, the students enrolled during the year 2014 for various professional, degree courses in various colleges/universities/institutions of the country under the Prime Minister’s Special Scholarship Scheme have not reportedly been granted the said scholarship by the HRD Ministry /AICTE and as a result of it the students and the parents are worried about it.
Therefore, it is requested to the J&K State Education Minister, Naeem Akhtar to kindly take up the matter of granting (PMSSS) Scholarship to the students enrolled during the year 2014 with the Union Home Resource Development (HRD) Minister as well as with All India Council for Technical Education (AICTE) in the best interest of the students of J&K State who are pursuing various professional, degree courses in various colleges/universities of the country under Prime Minister’s Special Scholarship Scheme (PMSSS). Hope, an early action in the matter is taken which will reduce the grievance of thousand of students and parents of the State.
Yours etc….
