I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT because I am a student of a rural background in a village that does not have many facilities. Moreover there are no facilities to get IIT-JEE tuition and I also have no money to give the fee for coaching class. I want to become an engineer and earn more income. I want to make my mother happy because I do not have a father. I lost him when I was in 3rd standard. My mother was the only one to take care of me after that. She worked hard for that and I am very thankful. I should return her hard work. For that I should go for a higher level. For that I was in need of some support for me as economically as I am poor. At this moment I am confident that Dakshana will help me. Apart of all these things there is one more important dream in my mind. According to this dream, one should become a good, respectable person of our nation. I want to become that with my own efforts. For that I need to become an IIT?ian. I think it is the best way according to mea and other dignified persons. Dakshana foundation can help me reach there. One day I need to improve my village by bringing new infrastructure facilities. As a member of my village I feel that it is my duty. For all these reasons I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT.
