Chief Secretary Anthony DeSa directed concerned officers today for early sanction of scholarship to Brahmane. In this regard, Brahmane had met the Chief Secretary on Thursday.
DeSa also directed for refund of Rs 26,195 fee deposited by Siddhant in second year course at Pt Khushilal Ayurveda College. On Siddhant’s application, CS held discussions with Principal Secretaries of Medical Education, AYUSH, Tribal Welfare and Scheduled Castes Welfare departments. He directed to sanction scholarship before January 31.
