JNV Fatehpur Uttar Pradesh
I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT

Q1. Introduce your Family to us ?
My father's name is Ram Narayan, and he is a farmer. He likes to play cards and watch news and political debates. My mother's name is Roona Devi, and she is a housewife. She likes to prepare new recipes and spend time with us. My sister's name is Akshanksha, and she is currently pursuing her master's in mathematics. Her hobbies include drawing, playing online games, and spending time with family. My maternal uncle is a government employee in the medical sector.

Q2. Why should you be awarded the Dakshana Scholarship?
The Dakshana scholarship should only be awarded to deserving students. The aim of Dakshana is to provide broader opportunities to talented students from low-income backgrounds. Since I fit this situation, I believe I should be awarded the scholarship. If I am not awarded it, I will stay in my parent JNV and work hard to achieve my goal through other opportunities.

Q3. What is your ambition in life?
My ambition in life is to become a successful tech entrepreneur. Since there is no big Indian AI and Robotics company, I want to build one like NVIDIA or OpenAI. The upcoming world is an AI economy, so if I succeed in building my dream company, I will make India a global leader in AI, technology, and robotics. My goal is not to achieve this alone but to inspire every Indian youth to innovate and build in India. I also want to establish ethical rules for AI development to prevent misuse.

Q4. How would you like to contribute to the society and the world when you become a successful?
If I succeed in my ambition, I will first develop a method to stop the dangerous aspects of AI singularity. With the help of AI superintelligence, I will make humanity and Earth better. Financially and technologically, I will uplift India. A strong monitoring system will help the government reduce crimes in the country. I believe AI can make Earth a better place by establishing harmony, reducing pollution, finding cures, and solving problems.

Q5. Describe an incident in your life that has motivated/inspired you to do better
There is no single incident that motivated me to do better, but several events such as news of frauds, seeing poverty in my society, and negative comments like Sam Altman’s statement that India can never build something like OpenAI. Also, happy moments in my life inspire me to establish harmony in society. One major event was the news of a robot attack on humans in China.

Q6. Tell us about your interests and hobbies?
My hobbies are playing chess, basketball, painting, sketching, and sometimes writing a diary.
