Speaking at the Prayas Adivasi School in Raipur, Kashyap said that State Government was keen on providing quality education to students of scheduled castes, scheduled tribes and adivasis'-dominated regions of the State.
“Efforts are being made to make the students of backward regions to become doctors, engineers, computer software experts and civil servants. They are given special training,’’ the minister remarked.
