The word \u201cShifaruh\u201d means banyan tree, which signifies knowledge and eternal life. Divyan said: \u201cI expect the Shifaruh Scholarship to be recognized among brilliant Indian applicants as a stepping stone to acquiring not only a competitive business outlook, but also a benevolent outlook with a genuine wish to give back to India.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The scholarship committee reviewed several applications for the 2011 academic year and selected Roopsi Narula based on her exceptional qualifications. \u201cWe look for candidates that show maturity and a genuine interest to give back to their community in India,\u201d said Luis Escamilla, Hult Director of Alumni.<\/p>\n<p>Roopsi Narula, an Indian native from Ambala City in the state of Haryana presented a compelling strategy to the application question. She proposes to fight hunger in India by packaging excess food currently wasted because of insufficient storage facilities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI wish to pursue an MBA from a top university with the aim of one day becoming a job provider to young talented people,\u201d said Roopsi.
