Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar: Now, each participant of the Central Youth Festival (CYF) will get a Rs 300 daily allowance within the jurisdiction of Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Marathwada University (Bamu).
It may be noted that the university conducts CYF every year to provide a platform for young artists to showcase their talent. Earlier, the college used to pay a Rs 120 daily allowance to festival participants. The decision was taken in the Management Council meeting organised on Wednesday.
The members approved the proposal to increase each participant's daily allowance and start a facility centre to provide stationery to the students.
A proposal was submitted by the Student Development Board to increase the allowance. In this meeting, it was approved to increase the amount of the allowance to three hundred rupees. This three hundred rupees allowance is used to arrange breakfast and meals for the young artist. The concerned college provides an allowance to the students, while the university will provide free accommodation to all the young artists.
