The Indian Institute of Technology (IIT), Mandi has received a generous donation of over $ 11,000 from US-based philanthropist Satish Agrawal to establish the Satish and Kamlesh Agrawal Scholarship.

The endowment, formalised through a memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed with the Institute, aligns with the IIT-Mandi’s mission to promote inclusive excellence, equity and accessibility in higher education.

A spokesperson for the IIT-Mandi said that Satish Agrawal and Kamlesh Agrawal’s contribution reflected their deep commitment to the transformative power of education and their desire to empower the future generations of scholars, innovators and leaders.
