"During the Lok Sabha poll campaign, CM Shinde and Higher and Technical Education Minister Chandrakant Patil had indicated higher education would be made free for girls whose parents' annual income is less than Rs 8 lakh. But no official order has been issued as yet. Such a move would greatly help girls from poor families," Pawar said.
