Topcem Cement, a leading cement brand in Northeast India, distributed essential school stationery items to approximately 500 underprivileged students across 13 institutions in Kamrup Metro and Kamrup districts.

Approximately 9,000 pencils, 6,000 pens, 1,100 notebooks, and 9,000 sharpeners and erasers were distributed.
Dr. Anil Kapur, Sr. President, Sales & Marketing, Meghalaya Cements Ltd., handed over the school stationeries to the beneficiary institutions. Speaking on the occasion, Dr. Kapur said, “Education is the right of every child, and no one should be deprived of it due to lack of resources. By providing school stationery, we ensure that children have the necessary tools to unlock their potential. We thank UTSAH Child Right Organization for their partnership and welcome Jalukbari Higher Secondary School for their active participation.” Topcem Cement has been supporting this initiative since 2021, demonstrating its dedication to empowering future generations through education. The company is committed to fostering a culture of learning, promoting compassion and responsibility among students, and bridging the educational gap for underprivileged children.
