After stipends for economically weak students from the communities, the state government on Friday made the decision to establish residential hostels in every district, catering to students from Maratha and Kunbi communities. Approval has already been granted to operate these hostels through a private organisation.
Chandrakant Patil, the Minister of Higher and Technical Education, has tasked Sarthi with establishing dedicated hostels for 100 students—50 boys and 50 girls—from the Maratha and Kunbi communities in every district.
