If numbers don’t lie, then Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s claim of inclusive growth with social justice agenda is nothing more than a mirage. Information received in response to an RTI query filed by Amitava Choudhury of West Bengal revealed that state, which has third largest Scheduled Caste (SC) population in the country, is one of the worst performers in terms of providing central grant for SC and other backward castes students. The data forwarded by Ministry of Social Justice & Empowerment regarding its central scheme, popularly known as ‘Free Coaching for SC and OBC Students’ reveals that the Ministry has received only one proposal from Bihar government with a list of 950 students from SC and OBC category for 2013 to 2016.
