Nellore, July 25, 2025: In a powerful push to bridge the gap between education and accessibility, SEIL Energy India Limited, one of India’s leading independent power producers, has donated 1,000 bicycles to school-going children in Addanki, Bapatla District under its flagship Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiative. The move aims to improve school attendance and reduce dropout rates among rural students—particularly underprivileged and first-generation learners, including young girls facing mobility challenges.
The distribution ceremony took place at Zilla Parishad High School (ZPHS), Makkenavaripalem, where the Hon’ble Energy Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Shri Gottipati Ravi Kumar Garu, formally handed over the bicycles. Additionally, 452 bicycles were also presented to students at ZPHS Medarametla, extending the impact of the program to more rural pockets of the region.
A Step Toward Equitable Education
“This generous contribution from SEIL Energy supports our vision to distribute 10,000 bicycles to underprivileged school children across Andhra Pradesh,” said Minister Gottipati Ravi Kumar Garu. “Transportation is often a hidden barrier to education in rural areas. With this initiative, we are ensuring that no child is left behind due to lack of access to schools.”
Education as a Catalyst for Change
Mr. Janmejaya Mahapatra, CEO of SEIL Energy India Limited, emphasized the deeper purpose behind the initiative:
“At SEIL Energy, we believe that education is the cornerstone of community empowerment. These bicycles represent more than a mode of transport—they symbolize a journey toward opportunity, dignity, and transformation. We’re proud to partner with the Government of Andhra Pradesh in advancing this meaningful cause.”
Impact Beyond Wheels
This bicycle distribution project is embedded in SEIL Energy’s larger CSR strategy, which focuses on four core pillars:
- Education
- Health
- Decarbonisation
- Skill & Entrepreneurship Development
Over the past ten years, SEIL Energy’s community-focused programs have positively impacted over one million lives, underscoring their commitment to sustainable, inclusive growth in rural and underserved regions.
Empowering First-Generation Learners
All 1,000 students who received bicycles come from economically disadvantaged rural backgrounds, and many are first-generation learners. By easing their daily commute, this initiative not only increases school attendance but also empowers children to pursue education without barriers, opening doors to brighter futures.
