<p>My commitment to high-impact research is underscored by my selection as a <strong data-path-to-node="9,0" data-index-in-node="75">Maulana Azad National Fellow (MANF)</strong>. This national scholarship, granted by the UGC, allowed me to pursue my PhD at DBM, Nagpur, with full financial support, validating the social and academic relevance of my work. As a MANF scholar, I have developed the administrative discipline required to manage large-scale research grants&mdash;an expertise I intend to utilize at NICMAR to help our department secure national funding and elevate our research standing.</p>
