Fund crunch threatens to disrupt ops of hostels for tribal students

Since June 2, hostels are relying on building owners, traders who extend credit for provisions
THE TUSSLE between Kerala and the Centre over the release of funds through the Samagra Shiksha scheme is set to hit the smooth functioning of six residential hostels for Schedule Tribe (ST) boys and one for girls that house close to 400 students.
The hostels managed by Samagra Shiksha-Kerala (SSK) provide both residential and academic facilities to children hailing from sparsely populated, hilly and densely forested areas. The fund crunch has landed their academic future in uncertainty.
The disbursal of Central funds through Samagra Shiksha has been facing disruption since the second half of 2023-24, but the SSK managed to overcome the crisis using the funds provided by local bodies under the elementary education head.
