​Hyderabad: The Kalyana Lakshmi scheme, under which poor girls of various communities are being provided financial assistance of Rs 75,116, will now be extended to the poor girls of Brahmin community also. The State government would also offer scholarship under Vivekananda Overseas Scheme and Lakshya for higher studies abroad to poor Brahmin students.
Officials concerned will identify the beneficiaries to offer monetary help under the scheme. Government Advisor and Telangana State Brahmin Welfare Parishath Chairman K V Ramanachary told the media at Secretariat that the marriage scheme would be extended to the poor Brahmin girls also. He said a website for the Parishath would be launched on May 9 which would have all details and programmes for the cause of Brahmins.
Ramanachary said the government would lay a foundation stone for construction of a Brahmin Sadan at Gachibowli on June 5. Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao, who promised adequate funds for the welfare of Brahmins as the community has poor people, is expected to lay the foundation stone for Brahmin Sadan.
Ramanachary also said the Vivekananda Overseas Education scheme for the Brahmin students would prove handy as there were many poor families, who could not afford to go abroad all by themselves for studies. Financial assistance would be offered to those students for taking training under Lakshya scheme.
He also said that Brahmin students, who excelled and topped in examinations would be offered incentives and required support under Saraswathi Vidya Prashasti scheme. A meeting would be conducted with the students who attended and were selected in the Job Mela which was conducted
recently, he said.
