CIRC Tura in Meghalaya has been creating awareness among students and communities by helping them out in getting knowledge of different programmes as a part of its mobilising activities. Last year CIRC Tura introduced about Maulana Abul Kalam Azad Scholarship in various schools of Tura. 170 students from different schools near CIRC had applied for this scholarship. Out of 170, 139 got the scholarship; each student received an amount of Rs. 12000 for the current year. With this scholarship many student have now the opportunity to study in a good school which will help them in getting quality education.
This scholarship aims at providing scholarship to girl students who have scored 55% and above in their board exams as well those who come from poor family background and from minority group. Before that, most of the students in the schools and colleges were not aware about this program due to which many of them had to leave their study in between due to financial crisis. CIRC Tura plays a strong role in motivating students to continue their education with the help of such scholarship programmes which are designed to cater the needs of those underprivileged people. CIRC Tura also helped those students throughout the process starting from distributing the forms to delivering it to the concerned department on time.
