Youth brand Djuice recognized the students’ efforts at ‘breaking the silence – Khamoshi ka Boycott’.
All the students are poor and belong to far-flung areas but had secured more than 90% marks in their Matriculation examination by instilling in themselves a drive for a better tomorrow.
Each student was awarded a handset along with a Djuice SIM with free airtime and Internet access. The aim is to empower them with a tool that can help them activate their communities.

It doesn’t make any sense to give them a mobile phone.
It would have been better if Telenor could have given them scholarships for 1-2 years of their next studies e.g., FSc / FA etc.
What if they start availing the night packages which would badly affect their studies????

@ kamal ,
please change your way of thinking , first read the post properly.
“All the students are poor and belong to far-flung areas ”
” Each student was awarded a handset along with a Djuice SIM with free airtime and Internet access. ”
think this way , FREE Internet access will give them a new window to learn new things which I think you are deprived of.
These students gained more than 90% marks , night packages will bring them no harm . Those who want to study will study.
“All the students are poor and belong to far-flung areas ”
Then they need money/scholarship to pay their fees and buy books, uniforms etc — What they’ll do with the airtime??
“think this way , FREE Internet access will give them a new window to learn new things which I think you are deprived of. These students gained more than 90% marks”
They gained more than 90% marks without internet.
Decide urself is free internet / free airtime more important for these poor students or money to pay their fees and buy books / uniforms????
