New Delhi: Another big decision of Prime Minister Narendra Modi In order to encourage Muslim girls in the country with the aim of higher education, the central government will give Rs. 51,000 as 'shadi shagun' to those minority Muslim girls who will complete the graduate studies.

So far, Muslim girls studying in 11th and 12th grade were getting scholarships of Rs. 12 thousand rupees.

Parents have to encourage achieving this goal

MAEF treasurer Shakir Hussain Ansari said, "Even today, in a large part of Muslim society, Muslim girls are not able to get higher education. One of the reasons for this is financial constraints. Our aim is to encourage the girls and especially the parents, that girls should complete at least graduation level. In such a way, a sum of Rs 51,000 has been decided as a marriage omen.
