Nanda requested the Minister of Tribal Affairs to state the amount of funds disbursed by the Government under the Scheme for Hostels for ST Boys and Girls during the past three years, state-wise.

In response to the said queries, MoTA has informed that previously, a scheme named Hostels for ST Girls and Boys was operational. Under this scheme, State Governments were provided funds for construction of Hostels. The activity of construction of Hostels has been subsumed under two other schemes now. These are the Special Central Assistance to Tribal Sub-Scheme (SCA to TSS) and Grants under Article 275 (1) of the Constitution of India.
