Students who studied in government schools in Odisha will now get the benefit of reservation in admission into medical and engineering colleges of the state. A decision to this effect was taken by the state cabinet on Monday. According to the decision, a high level committee under the chairmanship of a retired judge of the Odisha High Court will be constituted to establish the modalities to implement the policy. The decision is consequent upon the realisation by the government that even meritorious students from government schools are not adequately represented in the medical and engineering colleges of the state.
