New Delhi: Hindustan Petroleum Corporation Limited (HPCL) has collaborated with the Indian Army to implement the third batch of an ambitious project – "Kashmir Super 30 (Medical)."

Kashmir Super-30 project was first started in the year 2017-18. Since then 68 students, in the first two batches, have been part of this project. It is a matter of great pride, that all 35 students of the first batch have cleared NEET and received admission in medical and allied courses. The second batch of 33 students have also secured stupendous result and are in the process of undergoing counseling for admissions this year.
The first-ever online MoU signing ceremony for Kashmir Super-30 (Medical) project was held on October 17 between HPCL's Director (HR) Pushp Joshi, and General Officer Commanding 15 Corps, Lieutenant General BS Raju, Ati Vishisht Seva Medal (AVSM), Yudh Seva Medal (YSM) in the presence of other senior officials of Indian Army and HPCL.
