The sponsors are expected to continue their support till the time the students complete their degree courses and secure suitable employment.<\/p>\n<p>ABOUT MUKTI: MUKTI (www.muktiweb.org), a non-profit making voluntary organization established in 2003, has been working on various socio-economic issues in order to bring about holistic development of socio-economic sections of the population.<\/p>\n<p>ABOUT TSS: One of the primary causes for the exclusion of certain sections of the population from India\u2019s newfound prosperity is the lack of access to quality education. Many talented but poor students, who complete schooling, do not have access to higher education, as their parents are unable to provide the financial support required for completing professional\/degree courses. The TSS project aims to address this issue by connecting economically backwards and meritorious students to individuals or groups of people willing to provide the required financial support to the students for higher studies. MUKTI serves as a bridge between the sponsor and student to create a long-term relationship between the sponsor and\u00a0students being sponsored.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MUKTI conducted its 8th annual awards ceremony on 8th November, 2014, to\u00a0felicitate scholarship recipients under its Talented Student Sponsorship (TSS)\u00a0program.
