Dr Narayan said the gesture of the institution for children of Covid-19 victims, at a time when online teaching-learning has become inevitable due to the Covid-19 pandemic, was timely and generous.
Dr Roychand said, “The scholarship offered is the humble contribution of the Jain group to the efforts of the state government in ameliorating the condition of families who lost their earning members during the pandemic.”
College renovation
The DyCM also sought the help of the Jain group for the renovation of the stone building of the college located in Malleswaram 18th Cross and RC College, to which Dr Roychand responded positively.
