My father's name is Mr. Laxman Prasad. He is a farmer. My mother's name is Mrs. Rajwati Devi, and she is a housewife. We are four brothers and sisters.

My family likes to spend time together by watching movies and enjoying with each other.

Q2. Why should you be awarded the Dakshana Scholarship?
I should be awarded the Dakshana Scholarship because I deserve it and fulfill all the criteria. If I am not selected, I will still give my best to achieve my goal.

Q3. What is your ambition in life?
I want to add the prefix “IITian” to my name. I want to become a software engineer and then give my best for the country and society. I will help needy people to make their future bright, as Dakshana made mine.

Q4. How would you like to contribute to the society and the world when you become a successful?
When I become a successful engineer, I will contribute to society through development. I will use the best of my knowledge to make programs that help people and make our defence system stronger. I will also help poor people as Dakshana helped me.

Q5. Describe an incident in your life that has motivated/inspired you to do better
Once upon a time, I was at my village. There was a program there. I thought people gave respect based on caste, but that day a rich person from our village came from America, and people respected him. That day I realized that people give respect to rich people, not based on caste. That day, I promised myself that I would earn a lot of money.

Q6. Tell us about your interests and hobbies?
I like watching movies, playing games, and listening to music.
