"The Prithvi Awards are our way of acknowledging the forward-thinking leaders who are not only driving financial success but are also creating a positive impact on the planet and its people. The presence of Shri Arjun Meghwal and Smt. Kamaljeet Sehrawat is a testament to the growing alignment between policy and corporate action in India, and we are incredibly honored to have them with us as we celebrate these significant achievements."

The awards ceremony is expected to be a landmark event, bringing together a distinguished audience of corporate leaders, policymakers, investors, academics, and sustainability experts. It will provide a unique platform for dialogue on the future of ESG in India and the role of corporate entities in addressing global challenges.
