Every child has determination, enthusiasm, and with these traits, they set their goals. I have done this for myself. I want to get into IIT. But with my dad's poor financial background, this would have remained a dream. However, a Dakshana scholarship is providing me with special privileges. I will definitely reach my goal. My mother and father's income is Rs 1,600 per month. They are poor farmers. Therefore, I could not have taken coaching for IIT JEE through any foundation. However, Dakshana Foundation has provided me with Godly action, which I could not dream of coaching into IIT. I will assure you that one day I will fulfill my dream, my parents dream, and also Dakshana foundation's dreams. I received 100% in the 6th grade math and after this I have always secured very high marks in Math. Most IITians work abroad or within the country. However, I want to work within my country to develop my society. Dakshana has provided me with excellent opportunity. I will make good use of this opportunity and will make Dakshana Foundation proud. I will always be grateful to Dakshana foundation. I will get a good rank in IIT and I will spread Dakshana's name around the world. Also, I will donate 10-15% of my future income to Dakshana. This will help poor talented students like me so they can be uplifted. I will be indebted to Dakshana Foundation for my life as Dakshana has turned my dreams into reality.
