In a profound gesture of gratitude toward the brave soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the nation’s security, Anand International College of Engineering (Anand ICE), Jaipur, has launched a commendable initiative. The institute recently introduced the ‘Sainik Kalyan Scholarship’ scheme, offering up to 100% scholarship for engineering education to the dependents of CRPF personnel who were martyred or passed away during their service. This facility will be available for a limited number of seats.
This scheme has emerged as a beacon of hope for families whose lives were altered in an instant. Anand-ICE believes that for families who have made the ultimate sacrifice for the nation, the responsibility for their children’s education and future lies with society and its institutions.
Beyond Tuition: Focus on Holistic Support
The college administration has also ensured that students receiving this scholarship will be provided hostel facilities at subsidized rates. This aims to reduce the financial burden, allowing students to focus entirely on their studies without any economic anxiety.
Scholarships Across Other Categories
In addition to the ‘Sainik Kalyan Scholarship,’ the college has established scholarship provisions for various other categories of students. The goal is to enable more meritorious students to access technical education and contribute to the vision of a Self-Reliant India (Atmanirbhar Bharat).
“This is not just a scholarship; it is our tribute to the nation. It is our moral duty to ensure the education of the children of heroes who sacrificed everything to protect the country.” — Monika Mittal Agarwal, Vice-Chairperson, Anand-ICE
A Compassionate Initiative
This step by Anand-ICE is not only a positive move in the field of education but also sends a strong message to society: the families of those who sacrifice for the country are never alone. Through the ‘Sainik Kalyan Scholarship,’ the college has proven that true national service happens not just on the borders, but also within classrooms and campuses.
