Prof B S Sidhu, Registrar, Aryans Group said that today higher education has become very costly and is out of the reach of the common man. Due to which, many meritorious students also leave their studies in between. Aryans and Dr Kiran Bedi have come forward with a try to fulfill the dreams of needy but deserving students to study higher. It is worth mentioning that Dr Kiran Bedi’s Navjyoti India Foundation has signed an MoU with Aryans which was renewed also. Under this MoU, the Navjyoti Foundation identifies the students for scholarships and Aryans provides them the scholarships.
