Mysore/Mysuru: The research scholars and students staged a protest under the banner of University of Mysore Researchers Association, in front of the clock tower at Manasagangothri campus in city yesterday, in protest against the diversion of Scheduled Caste Sub-Plan (SCSP) and Tribal Sub-plan (TSP) funds, for the implementation of Congress’s five Guarantee Schemes in the State.
The protesters demanded that, the SCSP and TSP funds should be spent on the economical progress of dalits. The Section 7C of SCSP/ TSP Act should be abolished and the earlier schemes like Prabuddha Yojana for SC/ ST students and the scholarship to encourage them among others, should be continued as usual.
