Following many noble gestures along with Sonu Sood, Karan Gilhotra, a young entrepreneur and philanthropist based in Chandigarh, both initiated a selfless drive with the help of friends to facilitate the online education of the underprivileged students struggling to study due to economic constraints.
The campaign is starting today with the first initiative in Morni, a remote town in Haryana, Karan provided smartphones to the students of a Government school in the area after coming to know about the heart wrenching story of the students’ plight.
Both Karan Gilhotra and Sonu Sood addressed the students in a virtual event after delivering the smartphones. Karan Gilhotra, a close friend of Sonu Sood, is also the Chairman of PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Punjab.
During the Covid crisis, Karan has come forward to help Sonu in facilitating many such noble causes. Few such initiatives include sending a tractor to the Andhra farmer and extending support in adopting the four children who lost their parents in the Punjab hooch tragedy.
As par a recent survey conducted by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), around 27 percent of students do not have smartphones and laptops to access the online classes and almost 84 percent of students use smartphones for online classes.
