A governing board has been formed for the Minority Research and Training Institute. Deputy Chief Minister Sunetra Pawar will lead the board as chairperson, with Minister of State Madhuri Misal as vice-chairperson. The board will also include secretaries from various departments as directors.

The appointments were made nearly one-and-a-half years after the institute was established to support minority groups. Details of the board's responsibilities and the institute's goals are not fully outlined here, but further information is available.

Concerns have been raised about the institute's funding, with a lawmaker calling for an end to what is seen as unfair treatment of the institute.
