My self Rabindra Chhanchan glad to have the chance to express my feelings to Dakshana founder after my selection in it. I want to describe my family background and my earlier thought first.
My father Mr Dhruha Chhanchan, mother Mrs Kumodini and I have an elder brother and a sister. I have come from a rural background. My father occupation is labour and have a little farm. In my childhood, I was a cowboy. I never want to go to school but once I lost a cow and my mother scold me. Then I never want to go for grazing cow. My father forcefully take me to our near primary school. I lived in hostel. Thereafter I have interest in study and got scholarship in standard 5th and in 3rd also. Then I appeared Navodaya Entrance exam and got selected.
If I have not got Navodaya then my life would be different from now. Because in my village my previous classmate no longer in study and especially for me due to economical problem of ,y family, would not teach me further.
In JNV, I spent 5 yrs and have so many experience. When I selected for Dakshana entrance exam, I thought this is a good opportunity for me for my IIT preparation because after XII I can?t have money for IIT coaching for preparation. I asked some of my senior friends about the question pattern and subject. But I have no time for preparation for Dakshana exam but have the faith that I may and it comes true. Now I am really happy to be here. JNV Sambalpur and JNV Baglur is no different in any sense.
I am really thankful to JNV system who brought me from a dark situation and give me light. It also give me the way for Dakshana. When I know that I have selected then my all teachers and staff congratulated me because they know that who ever go to Dakshana Foundation he will sure get into IIT.
I also thankful to Dakshana Founder and organization who is giving me a way for IIT. I hope the organization would better in all respect especially in their goal of formation. I am an element of it for their success. I thought as managing director told us Dakshana founders possess a big heart. They will be famous for their noble deed in all over the world.
I would put all of my strength in achieving my goal. I would work hard and I have the faith on my work that I will for IIT. The faculty members are also good in their work. The institution provide us many study materials. I promise to work for Dakshana and bring its name and fame in the world. I will do what they advise me.
