I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT

Q1. Introduce your Family to us ?
My father is a very hardworking and caring person. I always wanted to become like him. He is a teacher, and he teaches in a primary school located in a nearby town. My mother is very loving and caring; she is a housewife. My younger sister is studying in JNV Jabalpur in class 9th. My uncle is a farmer.

Q2. Why should you be awarded the Dakshana Scholarship?
I should be awarded the Dakshana scholarship because of my skills, talent, and hard work. This scholarship should be awarded to those people who have talent and are able to give good outcomes with the provided facilities, and to those who actually need these facilities. I think that I fall under this category.

Q3. What is your ambition in life?
My main ambition in life is to do something good for my society, especially for my parents and the institute which made me capable of using my potential and getting out of the crowd. If I get an opportunity to receive the extended scholarship, I will definitely do something good for sure.

Q4. How would you like to contribute to the society and the world when you become a successful?
When I become successful, my main aim should be to provide opportunities to those people who have talent but, because of lack of opportunity, may get engaged in some sort of illegal activities such as cybercrime, black-hat hacking, or illegal dealing of many items such as drugs. I will also work for Navodaya by donating some part of my income, and I will try to work for at least a few months in a Navodaya, just because of my emotional attachment to it.

Q5. Describe an incident in your life that has motivated/inspired you to do better
Once, when I was young—around 9 or 10 years old—my uncle was duped of ?10,000. I get inspiration from that incident to stop all such crimes. All this can be stopped by spreading awareness among individuals and giving opportunities to the needy.

Q6. Tell us about your interests and hobbies?
I have a lot of interest in reading books and playing chess whenever I get time. When I don’t have the option to read or learn phrases, I usually research something about mathematics because I feel fascinated by doing it.
