In a scholarships distribution programme held recently in the Capital by Human Welfare Foundation (HWF) as many as 46 students were given scholarships. The students were awarded with an amount of Rs. 2,500 to 7,500 each. The scholarships were given to those needy and meritorious boys and girls who are studying Humanities and Social Sciences in universities and colleges of Delhi. Speaking as Chief Guest, Mr. Siraj Hussain, former Vice-Chancellor of Jamia Hamdard and Joint Secretary, Ministry of Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution, urged the students to get involved in social activities to contribute for community and nation. “Being the future of the Nation and Community, it’s your duty to be aware, informed about problems and challenges and work for a better Nation and Community”, he reminded.

Rafeeq Ahmad, Treasurer of HWF said, “This is just beginning of the process of identifying and facilitating the needy and meritorious students of the community. Next scholarship will be released before the end of this academic session. We have decided to facilitate students of Humanities and Social Sciences for two reasons: One, these subjects are very important both for the development of the community as well as the nation; and two, only few organisations are providing assistance for studying these subjects.” Presiding over the function, Muhammad Jafar, Vice-Chairman of the Foundation asked the students to strive for excellence. He also urged the awardees to think and act for the betterment of the community.
