Nagpur: The district administration has geared up to distribute various types of certificates to the students at their doorsteps this year also for second consecutive year. This is first-of-its-kind initiative in the state by the district administration.
After SSC and HSC results, thousands of students throng the SETU or facilitation centre at the collector office to obtain caste, domicile, nationality and non-creamy layer certificates for admissions to colleges. Students and their parents stand in queues for hours at the SETU office and also make subsequent visits to collect the certificates. Also, the students and their parents fall prey to touts.
Last year, the then collector Sachin Kurve had launched the new system under which the applications for these certificates were received at camps organized at colleges and also at SETU and certificates sent to the applicants by post to their residential address. Around 28,000 students benefited from the drive.
Collector Ashwin Mudgal and his team will be holding three-day camps at 15 colleges between June 8 and 24. Applications will be received at the camps and certificates will be sent to the students’ residential address through post.
Camps will be organized at Saint John High School, Mohan Nagar, Ambedkar College, Deekshabhoomi, Gajanan College, Ayodhya Nagar, Keshav Nagar Vidyalaya, Jagnade Square and Dadasaheb Dhanwate College in Mahal between June 8 and 10.
Camps will also be organised between June 15 and 17 at Mahatma Gandhi Centennial High School, Jaripatka, Bharat Vidyalaya, Ram Nagar, Santaji College, Sneh Nagar, Pt Bacchraj Vyas College, Medical College and Rajendra High School, Hasanbagh.
Similarly, camps will be organized at Indira Gandhi High School, Jawahar Nagar, Jinglebell Convent, Hiwri Nagar, Jhunjhunwala Kanya Vidyalaya, Gandhibagh, CP and Berar College, Ravi Nagar and Tidke College, Katol Road between June 23 and 24.
Mudgal has urged the students to attend the camps and avail the benefit in large numbers. The students will have to attend the camps with required documents and fees.
