KP Human Development Foundation, the philanthropic arm of KP Group, in collaboration with PP Savani University, has launched a Urja Noor scholarship programme, aimed at supporting underprivileged students pursuing education in renewable energy and related fields.

The initiative will provide fully funded education, including tuition fees, hostel accommodation, meals and transportation, to deserving students enrolled in B. Tech and diploma programmes.

The scholarship program is designed to build a skilled workforce for the clean energy sector while ensuring access to quality education for students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds.

About 92 students have already availed the scholarship, with plans to expand its scale in the coming years.

A total of 120 students this year will get the scholarship, out of which 30 will be from Botswana, where KP Group is investing $4 billion.

Dr Faruk G Patel, CMD, KP group said the company’s aim has been to support young people who have the potential to succeed but lack access to the right environment.

The purpose of this scholarship is not just to fund studies, but to nurture skills and talent and build a strong renewable energy workforce for India, he said.

Sneh Savani, Managing Director, PP Savani University said the company wants to provide students not only with the means of education but also the means of income after education.

“Our responsibility does not end with imparting education, but with how students use it to support themselves and their families,” she said.

The scholarship ensures a stable ecosystem with accommodation, meals and transport, enabling students to focus on academic.

Dr Parag Sanghani, Provost, PP Savani University said the purpose of education is to ensure a confluence of hands and hearts to prepare the best engineers for the country.
