Dhruv M Sawhney, CMD, Triveni Engineering & Industries Ltd, has been conferred with a Lifetime Achievement Award for his immense contribution towards the sugar industry of India and the state of Uttar Pradesh.
The award was given by Chief Minister of UP Yogi Adityanath, during an event organised by UP Sugar Mills Association (UPSMA) to celebrate 120 years of establishment of the first sugar mill in the state. On behalf of Sawhney, the award was received by R. K. Goel, senior vice president & chief financial officer, sugar business, Triveni Engineering.
Sawhney has given around four decades towards the empowerment of the sugar industry. In his illustrious corporate journey, he has worked as the executive chairman, International Society of Sugar Cane Technologists (ISSCT), president of Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) for two terms, and president of Sugar Technologists’ Association of India (STAI). In 1998 he received the Mike Bennet Award from the British Society of Sugar Cane Technologists, U.K. for the best technical paper.
On being conferred with the Lifetime Achievement Award, Dhruv M Sawhney, CMD, Triveni Engineering, said, “I am truly humbled to receive such a significant award on 120th anniversary of the first sugar mill in Uttar Pradesh. The journey of the sugar industry has been exciting, and we are proud to be one of the key enablers of the socio-economic development in the country. Over the years, the industry has evolved from just sugar production to now being a major contributor towards the nation’s sustainability goals through biofuels such as fuel ethanol. The sugar industry is committed to support the farmers community, Government’s initiatives and build a strong inclusive growth ecosystem. And we believe the industry will be at the forefront for many more initiatives in the years to come as the Government aims for more ‘waste to wealth schemes to promote a circular economy.”
