ALL students of MGL Unnati clear JEE Mains

 

MGL Unnati – A CSR initiative of MGL for free coaching of meritorious children from economically weaker sections of the society

 

MGL Unnati, the project in its fourth batch has added icing on the cake with all the 30 students clearing JEE mains examination. These students are now gearing up for the JEE advance.

Mahanagar Gas Limited (MGL) being a socially responsible Corporate saw the need to help meritorious children from weaker sections of the society in Mumbai and nearby areas, who have the talent to compete in IIT/NIT but do not have the means to bear the expenses of costly private coaching institutes. Hence MGL tied up with Centre for Social Responsibility and Leadership Delhi in 2013-14, which conducts Abhayanand Super 30 Program of coaching students for JEE entrance exams in various parts of the country.

Students from the last three batches of MGL Unnati having cleared JEE mains have found place in IITs, NITs  and state engineering colleges.  The year 2017 -18 is going to be a milestone year for the project, when the first batch of MGL Unnati students (2013-14) are expected to graduate out of their engineering colleges and secure jobs. 

The project in the fourth batch now has been able to touch the lives of 80 boys and girls through this initiative.

Shri Rajeev Mathur, Managing Director, MGL mentioned “Corporate Social Responsibility at MGL is not just a practice; it’s a core value which is merged in the mission and vision of the company working for a sustainable future. ‘MGL Unnati’ is flagship CSR intervention of MGL. The objective of this initiative is to give an opportunity to meritorious youngsters from economically weaker sections to rise above their limitations and achieve their dreams”. The youngsters should take maximum advantage of this program.”
