I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT because I want to serve India in the field of technology. I am an Indian and I want to take India to the peak of progress. Because of the condition of my family, I cannot afford any higher study. However, I was ed to study in Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya (Alwar) free of cost in the CBSE board. After studying 2 years in JNV, in class 11 I found myself lacking in preparation for IIT. I don?t want to say that coaching is a must and necessary to be ed in IIT-JEE but it will give us confidence. Through the Dakshana foundation, I got a chance to take the ion test by Career Point. I achieved first rank in that test. I am very happy and express my gratitude in words. I will leave no stone unturned.
I have great ambitions, and will prepare my best for the IIT and I hope that I will be ed. After becoming a civil engineer, I want to make houses for those people living in India who are homeless or spend their lives in poor condition. I want to remove poverty from India as well as give greater technology to my nation to help it develop economically.
I am a son of a laborer. The condition of my family is not good and my father would not be able to send me to Kota for coaching at the Bansal, Resonance, or any other institute. Dakshana foundation has given me a chance and I will not lose this opportunity. To born and to die is a universal rule but in the middle period ie. life, I want to such work that I will leave my mark in India. This is why I want to be a Dakshana scholar. I want that my father will praise me in the words, ?you?re great, my son.? I want to leave a message for all: Winners do not do different things. They do the same things differently. Jai Hind!!!
