Message:

I would like to extend my sincerest gratitude to the Sardar Manmohan Singh Trust & Justice Singh for giving a dreamer like me the reality of studying at one of the top universities in the world. My experience at Cambridge was nothing short of absolute perfection. From the classes I got to attend, the lecturers I got to learn from, the friends I made and the multiple homes I now have all over the world, the experience was definitely an all rounded one! Whilst the year flew by, the memories, the training, teachings and the friendships linger on. Whenever I think of my time at Cambridge, the journey that got me there, the hurdles, the challenges, the growth, I am enveloped with utmost gratitude and appreciation for the Trust and Justice Singh. The opportunities that opened up for me were countless, both in India and abroad. I am happy and extremely proud to be a Justice Singh scholar and only wish to be able to continue to make the Trust and Justice Singh proud of me.
