Students stage dharna

HYDERABAD: The State BCs Students’ Association on Wednesday organised a dharna here to protest the Government’s ‘indifferent attitude’ in increasing the scholarships and mess charges of SC, ST and BC students. R. Krishnaiah, president, AP State BC Welfare Association, charged the Government with neglecting the students’ demand for nine years. While the State ministers’ allowances were regularly raised and even prisoners were being paid Rs.1,050 as food expenses, the students’ mess charges remained unchanged, he alleged. –Special Correspondent
