With the sole purpose of providing quality education to underprivileged children, these schools will give them a chance to have better future prospects.

The Mandal Sanchalan Samiti will be responsible for selecting students, running the Atal schools, and monitoring them after the schools start.

The committee that oversees the admission process in the districts will also serve as a monitoring body at the district level. The district commissioner will serve as the committee’s chairman, and the DM will serve as vice-chairman.

The committee will be composed of the Navodaya Principal, the Principal of Atal Residential School, and the Additional Commissioner Finance or Chief Treasury Officer (nominated by the Commissioner).

The government has stated that the Right to Education covers compulsory education up to Class 8th for all students and has now limited its pre-matric scholarship scheme for backward and minority communities to students of Class 9 and 10. Previously, the pre-matric scholarship used to cover education for Class 1 to 8 students belonging to SC, ST, OBC, and minority communities.

The government has justified its decision to exclude students in Classes 9 and 10 from the Pre-Matric Scholarship Scheme by underlining that the Right to Education (RTE) Act, 2009 makes it obligatory for the government to provide free and compulsory elementary education (Classes 1 to 8) to each and every child.

“Accordingly, only students studying in Classes 9 and 10 are covered under the Pre-Matric Scholarship Scheme of the Ministry of Social Justice and Empowerment and the Ministry of Tribal Affairs. Likewise, from 2022-23, the coverage under the pre-matric scholarship scheme of the Ministry of Minority Affairs shall also be for Classes 9 and 10 only.

The Institute Nodal Officer (INO)/District Nodal Officer (DNO)/State Nodal Officer (SNO) have been asked to verify the applications for Classes 9 and 10 under the Pre-Matric Scholarship Scheme of the Ministry of Minority Affairs.

Randeep Singh Surjewala, a Congress MP, has accused the government of “conspiring” against the poor by stopping scholarships for children from SC/ST backgrounds from 2022-23 onwards.

“The BJP has been systematically attacking SC/ST/OBC and minority communities for the past 8 years, whether it was cutting their budgets, committing atrocities against them, or ending their welfare schemes. And now this. We do not accept this. We will run a movement against it. The government must take back this decision immediately,” he said.

BSP leader Kunwar Danish Ali claimed that the government has found a new way to keep poor minority children from getting an education by stopping the scholarship given to them (Class 1-8).
