Sachin Tendulkar launches memorial fellowship for medical specialization

On Teachers' Day, cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar launched the Professor Ramesh Tendulkar Memorial Fellowship to honor his late father. The initiative, organized through the Sachin Tendulkar Foundation in partnership with the Inga Health Foundation, aims to support medical specialization.

Each year, the fellowship will select one Doctor of Medicine for a year-long program focused on cleft and craniofacial care in Srinagar. Doctors who successfully complete the program will receive a certificate from the Foundation.

In a tribute to his father, Ramesh Tendulkar—a professor, writer, and poet—Sachin described him as his first mentor and guide. He noted that his father provided the freedom to pursue cricket while emphasizing the importance of character, honesty, and avoiding shortcuts.
