The New Indian Express Bengaluru
|July 23, 2025
IN a notable shift in parental preferences, Dakshina Kannada district is witnessing a growing demand for girls-only colleges, particularly from sections of the minority community.
Responding to this trend, the Karnataka government has sanctioned two new girls' educational institutions in the Mangaluru Assembly (Ullal) constituency, which is represented by Assembly Speaker UT Khader.
The Department of Minorities has sanctioned Rs 17 crore for a new educational complex offering schooling from Class 1 through degree level. The facility, which will cater to both residential and day scholars, will be established between Konaje and Pajir. Additionally, the Waqf Department will develop a girls' PU college in Ullal town. Both institutions will follow a 75:25 reservation ratio for minority and non-minority students, respectively.
