About
Education is top-seeded to uplift the backward classes. Because of a lack of education, a social category remains backward. In spite of the long duration passed since the independence of the country, no expected improvement seen in the educational status of Other Backward Classes. Many efforts have been made to improve the educational status. At present, post matric scholarship scheme is being operated in online mode by the Department of Backward Classes Welfare with the objective of developing backward classes and uplifting their educational status. Under this scheme, students of Other Backward Classes studying in all government schools, aided and recognized educational institutes are being provided with a scholarship each year. Department of Backward Classes Welfare is continuously working to uplift the educational status of backward classes.
