[India_Vision_2020] Educational Scholarship - Task Force !

 

Dear Friends

 Last few weeks you all would have seen mails on state of educational loans in higher education and how many low income families are not in a position to access to loans. RBI directive is upto  4 Lkahs, no colletral required other than identity/few other valid documents. But reality is different.

 An attempt is being mooted by India Vision group to see how best this existing direction & rules of banks can be availed. Most of the times it is lack of information & also attitude of individuals which deter it. 

Action 2020 team - group of India VIsion 2020 will have a setup called "Educational Scholariship - Task Force". Will be headed & guided by Shri.Srinivasan(I also like to point out he has been a career Bank official) our moderator supported by a team whom will represent all constituent groups of Action2020 team ! 

As for start the road ahead would be - 

a) Train the task force members on simple loan procedure.
b) Assist loan requirements for genuine students(guidelines will be formed very soon) proposed by Action2020 groups !
c) Mentoring students for whom loan guidelines are being given.(Ofcourse this will involve many volunteers from across the spectrum)

We seek to start a humble beginning to an age old problem in Indian higher education. Hope this will come to be a good model to emulate & our humble efforts will sprial a even stronger wave !

Action 2020 teams - 

 Kindly nominate one representative from your organisation, who will be in the task force. This is one of the fundamental problems many of you guys have been raising and here is a chance to avail it !! Kindly send the nominations to myself(in this id) or moderator(prpoint at gmail) at the earliest. Any of us with groups will know right from day one this is a BIG walll to break. Together as action2020 let us try to address it (within the confines of existing system - Yes frame work does exist. lets make it work :)) 

Will keep the groups on further development ! These are only skeletal details, more will follow in days to come.

Regards
shiva
