Why we Have not receive our 2015-16 ST scholarship yet. Whatever may the problem be that the state is undergoing they should not be delaying the distribution of the scholarship as the ST Students applied for the scholarship to meet their financial expenditure regarding their studies. Further delay can end up with serious protest as after all it is all about students the future of India.
