Dalit students from various colleges in Bihar on Wednesday protested over scholarship scam in Patna. However, police baton charged protesting students after a minor scuffle.
Earlier this year, Nitish Kumar government landed in controversy as a scholarship scam surfaced in Nawada district of Bihar. Of the total of 60 students given scholarships in 2015 for the session 2012-13, only one was found genuine in a probe conducted by the district administration.
