I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT because it will provide the financial support and coaching to a poor student like me. It will provide a great path to reach success in my life so that I am able to help other IIT-JEE aspirants who are unable to continue their studies because of financial problems.
For instance, I am from a poor family, and I know about better about the sorrow of poor students then other people, because I have suffered from such problems. It is a great idea of Dakshana foundation that students who are supported by this foundation should donate 10% of salary to the foundation. In this way we can also help Dakshana foundation to reach its goal. As an IIT?ian I can do a lot to help society, my country and the people who are unable to provide education to their sons and daughters. This factor will indirectly help our government to remove illiteracy and poverty from our country. It will also help us in technology and industrial development of our country, which is very necessary today. I resolve that I will never betray the path given by Dakshana foundation for my life.
