 In a momentous achievement that fills both the Indian and American communities with pride, Shifali Jamwal, daughter of Brigadier R.S. Jamwal (Retd), has been crowned Mrs. Universe America 2024 at a glittering pageant held in Seattle.

Born in Jammu, India, Shifali has always been a beacon of determination and resilience, qualities she attributes to her upbringing in a military family.

Describing herself as a "child of the planet," Shifali is driven by a dream to coexist harmoniously with Mother Nature.

At the pageant organized by AmPowering.org in Renton on November 10th, Shifali captivated the audience and judges alike. She graced the stage in a vibrant green lehenga adorned with butterflies, flowers, and peacock motifs, symbolizing nature’s life and beauty. Her commitment to sustainability and environmental conservation won the hearts of many, setting her apart in the competition.

With her new title, Shifali is preparing to represent the United States on the global stage at the Mrs. Universe pageant to be held in the Philippines next year. She aims to amplify her efforts and advocate for a sustainable future, inspiring others to join her mission.

"This platform allows me to bring greater attention to the urgent need for environmental consciousness," Shifali stated. "Together, we can create a lasting impact and ensure that our children inherit a world that is not just liveable but thriving."

This phenomenal achievement by Shifali has brought glory, pride, and honor to both the Indian Army community and the nation. Her journey exemplifies the power of determination and the impact one individual can make on the global stage.
