Mangaluru, Jul 25: The Catholic Association of South Kanara (CASK) distributed various scholarships to deserving students in a programme held at Bishop's house here on Saturday July 24.

The scholarships were handed over by bishop of Mangaluru Dr Peter Paul Saldanha.

Endowment scholarships worth Rs 1.4 lac to six beneficiaries and annual scholarships worth Rs 6.5 lac to 64 beneficiaries were also awarded.

Addressing the gathering, Dr Peter Paul Saldanha said, "CASK has been doing good work in helping the needy.

The chain should continue."
