'Kalpana Chawla Awards' exemplifies the importance of raising, educating, and empowering the girl child to achieve more in every sphere of life. Since we operate out of Karnal, we have been committed to making a difference in improving the gender ratio in Haryana since the start. I would like to thank the government for providing us a platform to achieve our goals and congratulate all the girl students for their continued determination."In 2016, Ebro India started with ten girls and then raised it to 20 in the third year. A total of 80 girl students have been awarded so far through this initiative.Ebro India is the Indian branch of Ebro Foods International Group, the global leader in rice production and second worldwide in the fresh and dry pasta sectors present in all 5 continents.
