WhatsApp VP institutes perpetual grant at Indian School of Business

The first recipient of the scholarship is Salini Tiwari, a dental surgeon from the Andaman and Nicobar Islands, who has done a commendable job in improving the healthcare facilities and support to the inhabitants of the islands, ISB said in a statement. 

Salini has been serving in the community and district hospitals in rural areas of north and middle Andamans raising awareness for oral diseases in surrounding villages in the islands. She has also devised a computerised system of record collection and data storage which is extensively used in these institutes. This is the second such scholarship from an individual ISB alumnus. 

The first was the Phoenix Nurture India scholarship instituted by Amit Khanna, alumnus and founder of Phoenix Holdings, who has awarded 10 scholarships over the years supporting students who are the sole earning members in their families.
