Open to all college students across India, more than 1200 students have already benefitted from the scholarship program, which now aims to reach out to an additional 5000 students over the next 12 months.
Founded in 2016 by Gaurav Jalan, mPokket had launched the scholarship to bridge the financial gap many students faced in meeting academic or allied expenses.
