I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT because I have a great interest in IIT, as it is the best sector in India.

My dream is to become an engineer therefore, I would like to become a Dakshana scholar. I come from a poor background and cannot get financial support from my father, who

is a farmer in a poor village. We live in a border area village. My parents are very interested in my education. Seeing my interest in science and

mathematics, my parents promoted my interest in engineering. I have a great interest in it and have hopes that I can do it. If I succeed in my goal, I can

support my family as well as my brothers and sisters. I will give a boost to my parents? dreams.
All parents want their children to be successful

people. But due to a lack of facilities and common education, they their dreams. Some children get their chance through their parents sacrifice and

determination. Due to my faith in God I survived the hardships that I have faced. I have set a further target in front of me to get into IIT. By getting

through the IIT exam, I can show my opponents that they have made mistakes.
In this world everyone has his or her own goals and aims, however only some

people get success. Similarly, I have dreams and I don?t believe I have any limits on my dreams. If I am defeated in my life I will like to assemble all

the important points and reasons (as why I was defeated!) and a make a new aim. I am very thankful to Dakshana.
