Gujarat, December 30, 2024 – A 25-year-old resident of Ghayaj village in Vadodara district, Pratikkumar Parmar, was shocked to learn that a scholarship had been issued in his name, despite the fact that he had never attended college. The scholarship, reportedly established by a local educational institution, was named after him, leading to confusion and curiosity about how it came to be.
Pratikkumar Parmar, who works as a laborer and has no formal education, was baffled when he came across information about the scholarship. He has never applied for any educational grant, nor has he had any association with the institution that issued the scholarship. Authorities are currently investigating how his name was linked to the scholarship, with some speculating that it may have been a clerical error or an unintended mistake.
The incident has raised questions about the scholarship allocation process in the region, with local education officials promising to look into the matter and rectify any mistakes found. The case has also sparked discussions about the need for greater transparency in administrative processes within educational institutions.
