Fellowship for Indians in the field of Every discipline the sciences as well
as the humanities and writers, journalists, artists and civil servants in
India -2011, (April 8, 2011)
Study Subject: Every discipline
Employer: Jawaharlal Nehru Memorial Fund
Level: Exceptionally talented persons to
devote themselves with freedom to their creative work for a period of two
years.
Scholarship Description: The Fellowships are open to scholars in every
discipline – the sciences as well as the humanities – and also to categories
of people not normally covered by existing schemes such as writers,
journalists, artists and civil servants – for undertaking not only projects
of highly sophisticated and technical subjects but also for study in depth
of current problems relevant to the India of today. The only criterion is
that they should possess proven capacity for outstanding work and a real
desire to pursue a creative project, exploring new possibilities in their
chosen field. As Jawaharlal Nehru said, “Man today, as never before in human
history, has to live with change as a permanent partner in his activities
and his Institutions.” This applies even to the most brilliant scholars, who
frequently need periods which they can devote entirely to the enrichment of
their intellectual capital, particularly in view of the speed with which
every discipline is developing in this nuclear age. The Fellowship is
tenable for two years and carries a monthly stipend of Rs. 60,000/-, which
is exempt from Income Tax u/s 10(17A) of the Income Tax Act, 1961. In
addition, actual expenses on secretarial assistance, traveling and other
contingencies are met by the Fund subject to a ceiling of Rs. 50,000/- per
annum
