Special scholarship programs for girl students were initiated to encourage literacy among them. Students from the underprivileged sections of the society were provided with study materials/books. Mr. Mantri also engaged with parents to reinforce the importance of education.

In an effort to bring quality education to children from below-poverty-line families, Mr. Mantri set up a school with all modern amenities for such underprivileged children at Bangalore. To ensure that children are tech-savvy, every student from grade 1 onwards was provided with a laptop.

Besides giving assistance to schools, funds were allocated to deserving and needy students studying in Architecture & Engineering Colleges.

Mr. Mantri also makes positive contributions to the society in the realms of civic development and environmental conservation, which include green initiatives. As part of this initiative, several parks in Bangalore were adopted by Mantri.

Mr. Mantri’s vision has enabled Mantri Developers adopt green technology and environmentally sustainable building practices.
