The country needs to know the names of all those who received Government Scholarships…

The call comes from the Global Organization of People of Indian Origin.

President of the Organisation, Devant Maharj says the privacy card played by Government to hold back from divulging information about the recipients is lame….

On Tuesday in the Senate, Culture Minister Marlene McDonald responded to a question from the Opposition… regarding the names of persons who received scholarships from her Ministry over a five-year period.

However she said that information was confidential.

But the President of GOPIOtt, says he’s not buying that excuse.

And Mr. Maharaj says his Organization has taken steps to get answers from the Government.
