Sarthak Educational Trust provides Sarthak scholarship from differently-abled students to enable them to pursue professional or technical courses from recognized institutes and get employed/self-employed.

Sarthak Educational Trust was started in year 2008. In 2004 while practising as a dentist, Dr. Aggarwal started losing his vision due to Macular Degeneration of Retina, a non treatable concern.

During this period he realized the agony with which a PwD’s goes through due to constraints such as non inclusive environment and limited access to resources and opportunities.

With God’s grace and support from various relevant persons he first got himself trained in screen readers and other software to manage and execute his daily activities through Computers, and gradually started with skilling and employment of visually impaired candidates in Medical Transcription in Delhi.

Thus, he envisioned a platform where this dependency can be cured. With this thought, in 2008 Dr. Aggarwal started with one centre in Delhi and gradually expanded to 16 centers across nation.

Through its presence in Delhi(3), Chandigarh, Gurgram, Ludhiana, Lucknow, Jaipur(2), Hyderabad, Mumbai, Pune, Ambala, Bhopal, Kolkata and Ghaziabad with the support of National Skill Development Corporation, Tech Mahindra Foundation, Capgemini India Private Limited, Mahindra Finance and various other agencies.
