SCHOLARSHIP TO SUPPORT DREAMS, REMOVE BARRIERS
The scholarship, named in
honor of Satya — symbolizing truth and commitment — is designed to bridge
financial gaps and inspire young minds to pursue quality higher education with
confidence and dignity. Covering 100% of tuition fees as per the respective

vision to promote inclusive academic access.
