educationally backward minorities. The Foundation receives grants–in-aid from the
Government towards its corpus and implements schemes from the interest earned by
investing the corpus fund (Rs.425 crores at present) which is the main source of its
income. The two main schemes of the Foundation are: grants-in-aid for expansion and
upgradation of existing institutions and the scheme of scholarships for meritorious girl
students belonging to the minority communities.

(ii) Equity contribution to National Minorities Development & Finance

engaged in promoting self-employment and other ventures amongst the backward
sections of minority communities through term loans and micro-financing. Share capital
is provided to NMDFC to implement its various schemes. Authorized Share Capital of
NMDFC is Rs. 1000 crore at present.

The micro-finance schemes of NMDFC mainly aim at empowerment of women

by way of meeting their credit needs through NGOs/SHGs. NMDFC also implements
the scheme of Mahila Samridhi Yojana. Under this scheme, women are provided skill
development training followed by requisite micro-credit at concessional rate of interest
for starting income generating activities.

(iii) Free Coaching & Allied Scheme: The objective of the scheme is to assist
candidates of economically weaker sections belonging to minority communities by
providing opportunities for enhancing their knowledge, skills and capabilities for
employment in government/private sector through competitive examinations/process of
selection, and for admission in reputed institutions. It also provides for remedial
coaching for students in institutions for successful completion of their courses. This
scheme is implemented directly by the Ministry of Minority Affairs with 100% Central
assistance to the selected coaching institutes. The scheme provides for earmarking
30% of target for girls.

(iv) Merit-cum-Means scholarship for professional & technical courses:

Scholarships are provided to the students from the minority communities who
fulfill the eligibility criteria for pursuing professional and technical courses at under-
graduate and post-graduate levels in institutions recognized by an appropriate
authority. 30% of the scholarships are earmarked for girl students. The scheme was
launched in June, 2007 and is implemented through State Governments /UTs
Administration.

(v) Research/Studies, Monitoring and Evaluation of Development Schemes

including Publicity: The objective is to commission research/studies, evaluate and
monitor the programmes and schemes for the welfare of minorities, including the Prime
Minister’s New 15 Point Programme for the Welfare of Minorities, and also carry out a
suitable multi-media campaign for disseminating information of such programmes,
schemes and initiatives to the target groups.

(vi) Pre-Matric Scholarship for Minorities: Pre-matric scholarship is awarded to

students from the minority communities who fulfill the eligibility criteria for studies from
class I to X in Government schools/institutes and private schools/ institutes recognized
by an appropriate authority. 30% of the scholarships are earmarked for girl students.
The scheme was launched from 1.4.2008 and is implemented through State
Governments/UT Administrations.

(vii) Post-Matric Scholarship for Minorities: Post-matric scholarship is awarded to

students from the minority communities, who fulfill the eligibility criteria for studies in

2
India from class XI to Ph.D. in Government schools/colleges/institutes and private
schools/colleges/institutes recognized by an appropriate authority, including technical &
vocational courses of class XI & XII level in Industrial Training Institutes/Industrial
Training Centres (affiliated to NCVT). 30% of the scholarships are earmarked for girl
students. The scheme was launched in November 2007 and is implemented through
State Governments /UTs Administrations.

(viii) Multi-sectoral Development Programme (MsDP) for identified Minority

Concentration Districts: 90 Minority Concentration Districts (MCD) having a
substantial minority population, which are relatively backward and falling behind the
national average in terms of socio-economic and basic amenities indicators, were
identified in 2007. The objective of MsDP is to bridge the development gaps in socio-
economic conditions and availability of basic amenities in the identified backward
districts having a substantial concentration of minority population. The MsDP is a
special area development programme and was launched in 2008-09. It is implemented
through the State Governments /UT Administrations.

(ix) Grants-in aid to State Channelizing Agencies (SCAs) engaged for

implementation of NMDFC Programme: The National Minorities Development &
Finance Corporation (NMDFC) operates through State Channelizing Agencies (SCAs).
These SCAs suffer from lack of infrastructure, manpower and resources to carry out
their activities effectively. Grants-in-aid are provided to SCAs to strengthen their
capabilities and operations. Under the scheme, 90% of the grant is provided by the
Central Government and the remaining 10% by the State Government.

(x) Scheme for Leadership Development of Minority Women

This scheme has been transferred from Ministry of Women & Child
Development to Ministry of Minority Affairs. The Sachar Committee Report had
highlighted that India’s largest minority group, the Muslims numbering 13.83 crore,
have been left out of the development trajectory. Within this group, Muslim women are
doubly disadvantaged. This scheme is being implemented to ensure that development
benefits reach the deprived women. Through this scheme, women would be provided
leadership training so that they are empowered to move out of the confines of their
homes and community and begin to assume leadership role in accessing services,
skills and opportunities.

3
(xi) Computerization of records of State Waqf Boards

This scheme is being implemented in pursuance of the recommendations of the

Joint Parliamentary Committee (JPC) on Waqf. Under the scheme, the financial
assistance would be provided for computerization of Waqf records of the State Waqf
Boards. The scheme is being implemented through National Informatics Centre and
State Waqf Boards.

(xii) Maulana Azad National Fellowship for Minority Students

The objective of the scheme is to provide Fellowship in the form of financial

assistance to students from the minority communities pursuing higher studies such as
M.Phil and Ph.D. The scheme will cover all Universities, institutions, recognized by
University Grants Commission (UGC) under Section 2(f) and Section 3 of the UGC Act
and will be implemented by the Ministry of Minority Affairs for minority community
students through UGC. National Fellowships will be on the pattern of UGC Fellowship,
awarded to research students pursuing M. Phil and Ph.D courses. 30% of the
fellowships are earmarked for female scholars.

(xiii) Strengthening of State Waqf Board

This new scheme is proposed to be implemented in pursuance of the recommendation of

the Joint Parliamentary Committee on Waqf. Under the scheme, Grants-in-aid is
proposed to be provided for strengthening the State Waqf Boards as most of the State
Waqf Boards lack resources to function effectively. Improvement in the performance of
the State Waqf Boards would result in better management of Waqf properties and help
generate resources which would be available for implementation of welfare activities for
weaker sections among Muslims. The scheme would be formulated, appraised and
implemented with the approval of competent authority.

(xiv) Interest subsidy on educational loans for overseas studies scheme for the
students belonging to minority communities.

This new scheme is proposed to be implemented with the objective of providing

financial assistance by way of extending interest subsidy on education loans to
students of minority communities for pursuing higher studies abroad. The scheme
would be formulated during 2010-11 and it would be appraised and approved by the
competent authority before its implementation.

4
(xv) Promotional Activities for Linguistic Minorities

As a measure designed to preserve and promote the minor and endangered languages
in the country and promoting multilingual environment, that shows due respect for all
expressions of cultural diversity, it is proposed to implement a scheme for preservation
of such languages. It is also proposed to provide, inter alia , facility for translation of all
the important rules, regulations, notices, etc. in the minority languages of the States at
the indentified local taluka/ tehsil/ municipality level, where the speakers of the minority
languages constitute 15% or more of the local population as provided in the Nationally
agreed Scheme of Safeguards for Linguistic Minorities. The scheme would be
formulated during 2010-11 and it would be appraised and approved by the competent
authority. The scheme will incorporate other items/elements in consultation with the
Commissioner for Linguistic Minorities.

(xvi) Scheme for containing population decline of small minority community.

The population of a small minority community, namely, Parsis has declined from
1,14,000 in 1941 to 69,000 in 2001 as per Census population data. In order to arrest
the diminishing population of a small minority community and arrest the trend,
Government proposes to assist the community. The scheme would be formulated
during 2010-11 and it would be appraised and approved by the competent authority
before its implementation.

Lump-sum provision for benefit of North Eastern Region: The provision is

for implementing the schemes for the North Eastern Region.

B. The Prime Minister’s New 15-Point Programme for the Welfare of Minorities
The Prime Minister’s New 15 Point Programme for the Welfare of Minorities was
announced in June, 2006.

The objectives of the programme are (a) Enhancing opportunities for education;
(b) Ensuring an equitable share for minorities in economic activities and employment,
through existing and new schemes, enhanced credit support for self-employment, and
recruitment to State and Central Government jobs; (c) Improving the conditions of living
of minorities by ensuring an appropriate share for them in infrastructure development
schemes; and (d) Prevention and control of communal disharmony and violence.

5
 An important aim of the new programme is to ensure that the benefits of various
government schemes for the underprivileged reach the disadvantaged sections of the
minority communities. In order to ensure that the benefits of these schemes flow
equitably to the minorities, the new programme envisages location of a certain
proportion of development projects in minority concentration areas. It also provides
that, wherever possible, 15% of targets and outlays under various schemes should be
earmarked for minorities.

As envisaged in the Prime Minister’s New 15 Point Programme for the Welfare
of Minorities, earmarking of 15% of the physical targets and financial outlays has
already been done in respect of most schemes, considered amenable to earmarking.

POLICY INITIATIVES AND REFORM MEASURES

Policy Initiative

Five communities, viz., Muslims, Christians, Sikhs, Buddhists and Zoroastrians (Parsis)
have been notified as minority communities in terms of Section 2(c) of the National
Commission for Minorities Act, 1992. The Ministry has taken several policy initiatives to ensure
equitable distribution of development benefits to the minorities, especially in education,
employment opportunities, and living conditions, some of which are given below:

(i) Prime Minister’s New 15-Point programme for the Welfare of Minorities : The
Prime Minister’s New 15 Point Programme for the Welfare of Minorities was announced in
June, 2006. The objectives of the programme are (a) Enhancing opportunities for education;
(b) Ensuring an equitable share for minorities in economic activities and employment, through
existing and new schemes, enhanced credit support for self-employment, and recruitment to
State and Central Government jobs; (c) Improving the conditions of living of minorities by
ensuring an appropriate share for them in infrastructure development schemes and; (d)
Prevention and control of communal disharmony and violence.

An important aim of the new programme is to ensure that the benefits of various
government schemes for the underprivileged reach the disadvantaged sections of the minority
communities. In order to ensure that the benefits of these schemes flow equitably to the
minorities, the new programme envisages location of a certain proportion of development
projects in minority concentration areas. It also provides that, wherever possible, 15% of
targets and outlays under various schemes should be earmarked for minorities.

(ii) Education: The Ministry has laid emphasis on improvement of education and has
taken steps for introducing new schemes and for augmentation of the corpus of MAEF. These
include scholarships for students belonging to minority communities, namely, pre-matric,
post-matric, and merit-cum-means scholarships and Maulana Azad National Fellowship for
minority students. The objectives and projected outcomes of these schemes are given in
chapter II. These scholarship schemes and the scheme for Free Coaching & Allied scheme
provide for earmarking 30% scholarships for girl students from the minority communities. Some
more schemes for promotion of education are implemented by the Maulana Azad Education
Foundation, namely, scheme for assistance for construction and expansion of hostels and
14
technical and vocational training and scholarships for meritorious girl students belonging to
the minority communities for study in class XI and XII.

(iii) Employment opportunities:

(a) An expert group set up to make recommendations for restructuring the National
Minorities Development and Finance Corporation (NMDFC) to improve its operational
performance had submitted its report. Based on the recommendations of the expert group and
after carrying out inter-departmental consultations, the Government has approved ‘in-principle’
the restructuring of the NMDFC. Appointment of a consultancy firm has been finalized to work
out the details. Equity share of the GOI is proposed to be enhanced for expanding the
operations and reach of NMDFC in order to enable it to assist more persons in the target
group.

(b) Free Coaching & Allied Scheme: Coaching and Allied scheme has been revised to
cover training and improve its impact. The scheme provides for earmarking 30% benefits for
girls.

(iv) Area Development Programme

Minority Concentration Districts: 90 Minority Concentration Districts (MCDs) having

a substantial minority population, which are relatively backward and falling behind the national
average in terms of socio-economic and basic amenities indicators, were identified in 2007
based on population figures and the backwardness parameters of 2001 Census. A baseline
survey was carried out to identify the ‘development deficits’ of these districts. A Multi-Sectoral
Development Programme (MsDP) has been formulated and approved to address the
development deficits in these districts and its implementation started in 2008-09.

Reforms/ Steps for Improvement

The following steps have been taken for the improvement of the ongoing Schemes:-

(I) National Minorities Development & Finance Corporation (NMDFC);

(i) The progress of implementation of NMDFC schemes is reviewed on a quarterly basis

with reference to targets and achievements set in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
between the NMDFC and the Government of India.

15
(ii) The State Governments are pursued actively for release of their contribution towards
equity of NMDFC and for submission of proposals for strengthening of State Channelising
Agencies (SCAs).

(iii) A scheme for strengthening State Channelising Agencies (SCAs) was introduced with a
view to strengthen the infrastructure and performance of SCAs.

(iv) NMDFC is proposed to be restructured. An expert committee of professional bankers

and financial experts examined the functioning of the National Minorities Development &
Finance Corporation and submitted its recommendations for restructuring of the Corporation.
Appointment of consultant has been finalized to carry out detailed study and submit its report.

(v) An evaluation study on micro credit financing of NMDFC has been conducted by the
Agriculture Finance Corporation. This report has also since been received and is under
examination.

(II) Maulana Azad Education Foundation (MAEF):

(i) The corpus fund of MAEF has been substantially increased and is envisaged to be
increased further during the remaining period of the Eleventh Five Year Plan (2007-2012).

(ii) The organization has ensured that all important information with regard to grants-in-aid
to NGOs and scholarships to girls are available on the website of MAEF i.e
www.maef.nic.in.

(iii) State-wise allocation of MAEF’s resources has been made for an equitable distribution
among States/UTs.
