Yes. Indian constitution discriminates based on religion when it comes to running schools and other edu institutions.
Article 30 gives special rights to christians and muslims and subsequent amendment 93 also gives right to occupation to minorities but not to Hindus and Jews. RTE was deemed unconstitutional even in the light of Article 30 in TMA Pai vs State of Karnataka thus giving rise to 93rd ammendment.
> If I am not mistaken, Sindhis run their own colleges in Mumbai under these minority rights.
You are most certainly mistaken.
States can only declare linguistic minorities. Religious minorities are determined by a body called NCMEI. NCMEI by law can not have a Hindu as its member as a result a body that comprises of Muslims and Christians gets to decide if a Hindu school in Mizoram can start a school and avail minority benefits. They have categorically refused to do so in Kashmir, Nagaland and in Kerala so far.
