Hatti Community Seeks ST Status Intervention to Secure Scholarships
The Hatti community in Himachal Pradesh is still waiting to be officially recognized as a Scheduled Tribe.
This is a problem because it means that many students from the community can't get scholarships that they are supposed to be eligible for.
Around 40,000 students are affected.
The Hatti Samiti, a group representing the community, is asking for help to fix this situation.
They want the government to formally give them the ST status so that the students can receive their scholarships.
They had a press conference to raise awareness.
Hatti community members in Sirmaur district await formal Scheduled Tribe status.
The delay in issuing ST certificates has reportedly deprived 40,000 students of scholarships.
The Hatti Samiti held a press conference to address the issue.
Ramesh Singta, Dalip Singta, and Anuj Sharma led the Hatti Samiti.
The community is seeking intervention to resolve the issue.
