The Chairman of HRIT Group of Institutions, Mr Anil Agarwal, has been awarded the “UP Ratna” by the Governor of Uttar Pradesh, Ram Naik, for his contribution to education.
Speaking on the occasion, Mr Naik said, “Other educationists should take inspiration from Anil Agarwal and set a new example for the society.” Agarwal said that private and self financed institutions had carved a prominent niche for themselves in the field of higher education. Now, students do not have to migrate from the state looking for better educational institutions.
He also assured that no stone will be left unturned in ensuring the welfare of the society.
Agarwal has also been awarded several titles like Excellence honour by former Central Minister Harish Rawat, the Indira Gandhi Sadbhawna honour by Dr Bhishma Narain Singh, former Governor of Tamil Naidu and Assam.
