/ -- The second edition of the annual prestigious Smt Jyoti Dwivedi Memorial Scholarship Awards was presented to the students in a ceremony held at the premises of the Jamnalal Bajaj Institute of Management Studies (JBIMS) campus on 20th December 2019. Four scholarships were presented including two core awards of Rs. 1 lakh each and two ad hoc awards of Rs. 50000 each. The scholarships are given to the second-year students to meet their educational expenses based on their first-year scores and their family's financial standing. The scholarship amount is provided to JBIMS personally by Mr. Nimish Dwivedi from JBIMS' batch of 1993 in memory of his mother Mrs. Jyoti Dwivedi. This is the first-ever scholarship instituted at this prestigious business school.
The winners of the two core scholarships are Omkar Rudrawar and Sushmita Pazare; the ad hoc scholarship winners are Ashish Jayprakash Metkar and Mayur Jayvant Dehankar.
Mr. Rudrawar has completed his B. Tech in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from NIT Nagpur. Ms. Pazare has completed her Engineering in Biotechnology from NIT Raipur.
The winners were also gifted with a copy of the book authored by NimIsh titled 'Marketing Chronicles: A Compendium of Global and Local Marketing Insights from the Pre-Smartphone and Post-Smartphone Eras.'
Dr. Kavita Laghate, Director of JBIMS said, "JBIMS is thankful of our alumni Mr. Nimish Dwivedi for the gesture of instituting this scholarship since last year. It is also great to see more and more students benefitting from this. I hope this scholarship will motivate the four deserving students to achieve more in their education and their personal lives as they prepare themselves for embarking on stellar careers."
Nimish Dwivedi, the benefactor, said, "My late mother believed in the power of advanced education as she was one of the first graduates from her home town in Gujarat during the 1960s. I am thankful to the director and to my business school not only for instituting this scholarship in my mother's memory but also continuing it on an annual basis."
