द ब्यूटीफुल ट्री: १८वीं सदी में भारत की स्वदेशी गुरुकुल शिक्षा (धर्मपाल)

12. By the statement now submitted it appears that 4,847
    scholars are receiving education in 465 Gentoo schools, while
    only 199 are studying the Sastrums in 49 colleges.
13. The number of schools for teaching the Persian
    language are few in this part of the country. The Mussulman
    scholars (with the exception of the 41 who are learning the
    Gentoo language) are 236 in 19 schools, their continuance in the
    schools about 9 years (from 6 to 15 of their age), the monthly
    Pay to the school master is from a quarter to one rupee; and the
    charges for writing things are estimated at 4 annas each per
    month. Some of the learned Mussulmans are teaching a few of
    the scholars without receiving reward on account of friendship
    for their relations, and others for a charity; for instance Hussain
    Alli Fukeer son of Muhudeen Shaw at Ellore.
14. None of the institutions appear to have been regularly
    endowed, although probably encouragement and support was
    given to them by the more opulent and powerful natives of
    former days.
