Students in Maharashtra aiming to enroll in professional courses after Class XII have been given additional time to apply for their caste validity certificates. The deadline has now been extended to April 30, according to officials from the Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar Research and Training Institute (BARTI), Pune.

The caste validity certificate is a compulsory requirement for admission into a wide range of professional streams, including medicine, engineering, architecture, pharmacy, agriculture, and animal husbandry. It is also essential for those pursuing postgraduate professional degrees such as MBA, MCA, and LLB.

Sanjay Dane, Deputy Commissioner and member of the District Caste Certificate Verification Committee, said that the extension was granted to ensure that no eligible student is denied admission due to missed deadlines. “Students who wish to enroll in any professional course after Std XII must submit a caste validity certificate. Since this is mandatory, the government has extended the deadline to April 30 to accommodate students who were unable to apply earlier,” he explained.

Interested students are required to fill out their applications online through the official websites: https://ccvis.barti.in or https://barti.maharashtra.gov.in. After completing the online process, students must submit the original documents to the district caste certificate verification committee office, located opposite Vishrantwadi Police Station in Pune.

The extension is expected to benefit a significant number of students, particularly those from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC), who rely on the caste validity certificate for admission and scholarship benefits.

Officials urge students to complete the process well before the deadline to avoid last-minute issues.

Fear is beginning to spread across US schools as the Trump government presses ahead with its biggest-ever deportation operation. As close to six million kids risk being severed from their family members, schools are bracing themselves for impact.

Administrators and teachers across the country are receiving training on how to deal with possible Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids on school campuses. Numerous schools have started developing emergency response protocols to safeguard students from unexpected detentions and deportations.

Certain institutions are enacting "safe zones", regions where undocumented students can take asylum in the event of an ICE presence in the vicinity. Instructors have also been taught responses to questions by immigration authorities to ensure student protection.

As a response to mounting fears, schools are teaching students about their rights under the law, such as the right to silence and the right to an attorney if they are approached by immigration officials. Several districts are working with attorneys to make sure that vulnerable students know how to defend themselves.

In addition, school social workers and counselors are being deployed to assist children in dealing with the psychological trauma induced by the looming uncertainty.

Nonprofits, religious groups, and advocacy groups are stepping up their efforts to support affected families. Across the nation, "Know Your Rights" workshops are being given to provide families with safety planning strategies and legal advice. For people who dread deportation, churches, mosques, and synagogues are offering sanctuary and services.

Since many undocumented immigrants work in vital businesses, community leaders warn that the crackdown hurts local economies in addition to destroying families.

The administration's plans for mass deportations have drawn harsh criticism from critics who fear social and economic repercussions. Critics claim that such acts traumatize youngsters and leave them unsure of their futures by fostering dread, escalating racial tensions, and upending the educational system. While protests have erupted in major cities demanding the protection of immigrant families, civil rights organizations have pledged to challenge the laws in court
