Launched in 2023, the initiative is aimed exclusively at the daughters of heavy commercial vehicle drivers, recognising their invaluable role in powering the nation’s transport and logistics backbone. The scholarship helps families overcome financial barriers that often restrict higher education for girls.
In just two years, more than 320 young women have already benefitted, and this year the programme will expand to cover 500 meritorious students pursuing undergraduate education across five states viz. Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Uttarakhand. Beyond financial aid, the programme reflects JK Tyre’s commitment to enabling equal opportunities and nurturing the next generation of women achievers.
Anshuman Singhania, Managing Director, JK Tyre & Industries Ltd., said “. With the 2025 edition of the JK Tyre Shiksha Sarthi Scholarship, we are reaffirming our commitment to ensure that no dream is left unrealised due to limited resources. Educating a girl empowers a generation and builds the foundation for a stronger, more progressive society.”
The Shiksha Sarthi Scholarship 2025 is in collaboration with Buddy4Study and applications can be submitted online at www.b4s.in/a/JKTS1, ensuring a transparent and accessible process for all eligible candidates.
