29 July 2024: Panasonic Life Solutions India, a diversified technology company, announced the ninth edition of its flagship scholarship program, Ratti Chhatr, which aims to recognize and empower young future leaders by providing financial assistance to select undergraduate students admitted to B.E./B.Tech. courses at any Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), helping cover around 50–70% of their tuition fees. Registration for eligible students is open until August 15, 2024.
Pooja Garg Khan, Head of Corporate Communications and CSR, Panasonic Life Solutions India, said, “At Panasonic, we believe that education is at the core of building leaders of tomorrow. Through our Ratti Chhatr initiative, we aim to equip young minds with skills and learning that will equip them for a brighter future.
Since the launch of the initiative in India, we have supported close to 240 students from underprivileged backgrounds to help them on their journey to realize their dreams. We also engage consistently with the scholars; in fact, one of them has recently joined our Innovation Center in Bangalore. This is a testament to the great results we can get when we create synergies between good talent and equal opportunities. We are now looking forward to the next batch of scholars.”
As a socially responsible company, Panasonic is committed to promoting inclusive growth and societal development. In line with this objective, the Ratti Chhatr scholarship program, in collaboration with the NGO partner Buddy4 Study, is committed to identifying and supporting talented youth who have the potential to become future leaders of the country by providing equal opportunities and access to education for underprivileged students.
