Akash Kumar

JNV Raichur Karnataka
I'd like to become a Dakshana Scholar and hopefully attend Medical College

Q1. Introduce your Family to us ?
My family has five members in our own house. My father, Jamadagni, looks after the house and also does farming. My mother, Shobha, is a householder and helps my father in farming. My elder brother, Arjun, is currently doing his MBBS 3rd year in Mangalore. My elder sister, Sahana, is studying Engineering (EEE) in Kalaburgi. My Mamas are also farmers. There are three Mamas — the elder one works in a mining factory, and the other two are farmers.

Q2. Why should you be awarded the Dakshana Scholarship?
Being financially weak, I want to join the Dakshana Scholarship and contribute to Dakshana by spreading awareness about Daan, so that poor but talented children can brighten their future. If I am not selected, I will take a drop at home and study through Physics Wallah to achieve my aim.

Q3. What is your ambition in life?
My ambition is to become a doctor. This is my wish and my father’s wish. Many incidents around me have inspired me to serve the country by treating people who are unhealthy and in need.

Q4. How would you like to contribute to the society and the world when you become a successful?
If I become successful, my goal is to serve others by being a good doctor. I will try to remove sickness from society. As my father wishes, I will treat people at minimum cost. I want to help those who are in need, not those driven by greed.

Q5. Describe an incident in your life that has motivated/inspired you to do better
Many sacrifices made by my mother and father inspire me. Even in critical situations with no financial support, they tried to stay happy in front of me. One evening, during a conversation, I asked my father why he wanted me to become a doctor. He replied, “The aim I wanted to achieve remained incomplete because of our family conditions. What I couldn’t achieve, maybe I can achieve through you.” This is the biggest motivation for me.

Q6. Tell us about your interests and hobbies?
I am interested in things which do not increase anxiety because anxiety kills activities. My hobbies are doing yoga and always keeping my mind busy.
