Over 800 people attended the June 20 event, which included benefactors, government representatives, business executives, and educators. Rahane expressed his ideas on empowering young pupils and expressed his joy at joining the cause.
“The future shines when opportunity and education come together.” I’m honoured to be a part of a significant project by the Sneh Asha Foundation that will provide education and technology to over 15,000 pupils. He tweeted on X, “Happy to be alongside Hon’ble Minister @ShelarAshish ji, @BeingSalmanKhan, @N_Hiranandani, @SJaiswal_IAS, and other dignitaries striving for a better tomorrow.

Medals and personalised presents are given out by Salman Khan.
Bollywood star Salman Khan gave the scholarship recipients medals and personalised presents in addition to giving the Foundation thirty brand-new laptops. Ten state-of-the-art computer labs with more than 600 high-performance equipment were also inaugurated during the ceremony. More than 15,000 students in Grades 6–10 are expected to directly benefit from these labs. From fundamental computer literacy to more complex ideas like coding, artificial intelligence, and data analysis, the centres are made to teach students a broad spectrum of digital abilities.
Additionally, Batch 3 of the Sneh Asha Scholarship Program was celebrated throughout the event. This program provides comprehensive assistance, including coaching, college tuition, mentorship, laptops, and career counselling, to children from underprivileged neighbourhoods. Three specialised tracks—Saraswati (for Class 10 toppers), Shakti (graduate), and Laxmi (post-graduation)—are used to nurture the students.
