Students allege that the information about scholarships was kept away from them for months

A notification issued by the Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS) on March 16, asking for applications from OBC students for their scholarships, has left the authorities in a tight spot. The notification mentions that the state government had informed the institute about the applications in August 2017. However, the institute issued the notice just four days prior to the deadline (March 23). This has forced the students to believe that crucial information was kept away from them for months and is being shared at the last moment.
