“ Sharad Pawar Inspire Fellowship A journey from Inspiration to Excellence”

Over the last few years, the Sharad Pawar Inspire Fellowship has grown into a nationally recognised platform, attracting highly motivated young innovators from across the country. What began as a focused initiative has now evolved into a dynamic, multi-disciplinary programme that is widely discussed in academic, social, and professional circles. The Fellowship has expanded beyond Agriculture, Education, and Literature to include the Child Education Fellowship, launched to nurture early-stage interventions that strengthen foundational learning across India. Entering its second year in 2026, the Fellowship now receives applications from diverse aspirants who are committed to social impact, grassroots development, and nation-building. This growth reflects the increasing relevance of Pawar Saheb’s vision: empowering young minds, encouraging dialogue, and inspiring leadership grounded in inclusivity and service to society.

“This is how democracy works, it may take time, but the dialogue is the only way forward. The more you talk, the more you convince people, the more you take them in confidence and work for cohesiveness and inclusion, the better your leadership.”

So friends this fellowship is what the community needs today.
