I'd like to be a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT because I want to continue my education. It is my cherished dream to become an aeronautical engineer through IIT. I?ve always dream of flying in the sky and that?s I want to go in space research center. There are many classes for competitive exams but to join them requires a lot of money that my father, a farmer, does not have. I want to join Dakshana program because it is a scheme of the Navodaya Samiti and I have confidence in the activities of Samiti. These classes are for poor students and it is golden opportunity for me to show my abilities. If I become a Dakshana scholar I can do everything as per my parent?s wish. I want to serve not only my parents but I want to serve my nation. I would like to take India?s name to the top like Kalpana Chawala. If I am able to attend IIT then no one can stop me to take our nation to the top.
