The Scholarship Program identifies and recognizes a group of talented young individuals with the potential to excel in their respective fields. Panasonic provides financial assistance and support to the youth from low income families as financial constraints should not be a bar for these students from shining. Last year majority of the students selected from the first batch received admission in top IIT institutes – Delhi, Mumbai and Kharagpur.

Amitabh Kant, CEO, NITI Aayog, Government of India said, “It is admirable to see Panasonic India continuing its initiative of providing means of education to bright young talents across the country and helping them to achieve their ambitious goals. There is a big world out there, starving for new ideas and new leaderships, and we cannot afford to be left behind. Initiatives like the ‘Ratti Chhatr Scholarship Program’ addresses the demands of the hyper-competitive world. IITs are the right platform to nurture the start-up community and thus, enable the dreams of young minds of this country. Such initiatives will pave the path towards nation building and thus, aid in creating a better life and hence, a better society.”

Manish Sharma, President & CEO, Panasonic India & South Asia, Executive Officer, Panasonic Corporation, “We at Panasonic have always been committed to making lives better. Ratti Chattr Scholarship is a progressive endeavor in this direction to create experts by providing young Indian talent from economically weaker sections with financial assistance. By providing the youth of this country with the essential tool – education, we hope to not only make a difference but also strive to inspire the next great Indian success story. We want to make India self-sufficient. Our scholarship program is an initiative which we hope inspires people across the country to take up the mantle and educate the future of our nation. Education is no longer a goal, it is an imperative”.
