Mangalore, Aug 7: Karnataka state Devadiga Sangha in association with Dubai Devadiga Sangha organised a scholarship distribution programme for economically backward merit students at the Devadiga Sangha Hall in Mannagudda here on Sunday August 7.
 
The chief guest on the occasion, noted entrepreneur Harish Sherigar said that obtaining education for students despite poverty is the duty of every person in the society. He called for more assistance to those who cannot afford education and urged people to donate generously for this noble cause. He also asked the students to make their parents proud by achieving great heights in life.

He also informed that one can visit www.devadiga.com to know more about events carried out by the Sangha.

An sum of Rs 1,79,000 was distributed among students as scholarship. 
 
Another chief guest Dr Devaraj K, principal of SDM college, said that the life of former President of India Dr Abdul Kalam was an ideal one. Poor financial background should not be an obstacle for pursuing education, he said, and noted that caste system has also helped in a way, such that many ‘sanghas’ (unions) had been formed and people of that community could come forward to donate for a good cause.
 
As many as 159 students were distributed the scholarships, of which 135 were SSLC students, and others PUC and degree students. Students from different places like Udupi, Karkala, Bhatkal, Mangalore availed the scholarships.
 
President of the Sangha Dinesh Devadiga presided. Vice-president Vaman Maroli welcomed. Veni Maroli, Sharmila Sherigar, Shekar Devadiga, Ramachandra Devadiga, Dinesh Devadiga Dubai among others were on the dais.

    Is it a coincidence that the two guests are like the two sides of a coin.
    Harish is a successful entrepreuner,While Devraj is a management guru who moulds students to be entrepreuners.
    Both should impart practical(harish) and theoritical(devraj) knowledge to the younger generation.
    Padebettu Shekar you always get a surprise honour,take it honourably.

    Merit Students need be recognized at every level and every corner or our intellectual society. India's growing population is gifted with substantial amount of merit studens that need encouragement so that they continue to shine in their respective disciplines and bring glory and honour to our nation not only within India but also outside India. The entire villege is benefited by a bright student.

    Intellectual leaders such as Dr. Devaraj of SDM College are great assets to our society. They also need our support so that they will enrich their colleges with some of the best faculty members who will guide the destiny of thousands of good students to move forward.

    We were highly impressed with the quality of students and faculty members of SDM College where we have established four Toastmasters Clubs in order to groom the students to be our dynamic leaders of our future.

    White a great pride to witness not only the merit students but also their proud parents standing besides their gifted children who will bring multitudes of benefits to our society in the years to come.
