Striving hard for the development of minorities in the state to realise the vision of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas’, the Yogi government has benefitted more than 20 lakh students belonging to minority communities under various scholarships schemes.

Ensuring that every eligible student gets benefited from the programme, the government has doled out scholarships to around 20,16,076 students in the last four-and-a-half years.

Pushing the youth towards attaining education, under the State-funded Pre-matric scholarship scheme, Rs 3,000 per year are disbursed per student by the Minority Welfare Department in Uttar Pradesh. While for the Post-matric Scholarship, the scholarship money is decided class-wise and course-wise for minority students.

These scholarships were awarded from the fiscal year 2017-18 to FY 2020-2021 on the basis of need-cum-merit criterion in view of the financial status of the family of the minority applicant.

According to year-wise details, about 3,16, 569 students were conferred scholarships during the fiscal year 2020-21. Likewise, around 5,41,713 students were given scholarships during the year 2019-2020.

The Government of Uttar Pradesh runs many plans for social development, economic growth, and better education of minorities so that they could be uplifted into the mainstream of society and for their strong participation in State Government Welfare Schemes.

The court, generally, considers a person who commit a crime and the one who destroys the evidence, as criminals in the eyes of law. But what if an animal destroys the evidence of a crime committed by a human.

In a peculiar incident in Rajasthan, a monkey fled away with the evidence collected by the police in a murder case. The stolen evidence included the murder weapon (a blood-stained knife).

The incident came to light when the police appeared before the court and they had to provide the evidence in the hearing.

The hearing was about the crime which took place in September 2016, in which a person named Shashikant Sharma died at a primary health center under Chandwaji police station. After the body was found, the deceased’s relatives blocked the Jaipur-Delhi highway, demanding an inquiry into the matter.

Following the investigation, the police had arrested Rahul Kandera and Mohanlal Kandera, residents of Chandwaji in relation to the murder. But, when the time came to produce the evidence related to the case, it was found that the police had no evidence with them because a monkey had stolen it from them.

In the court, the police said that the knife, which was the primary evidence, was also taken by the monkey. The cops informed that the evidence of the case was kept in a bag, which was being taken to the court.

The evidence bag contained the knife and 15 other important evidences. However, due to the lack of space in the malkhana, a bag full of evidence was kept under a tree, which led to the incident.
