I'd like to become a Dakshana scholar and hopefully attend IIT
I am an average scoring boy in my school days. But I am always happy with my obtained marks. I always wanted to study in a good institution and to increase my knowledge. But the obstacle for me is the money problem. Our family is a middle class family, the earning of our family is only for hand to mouth.
I never study more like 14-16 hours a day but I always go in detail which part I am studying and clear my concepts. I am very happy when I get 90% in 10th Board. After some days I came to hear, I have been selected for Dakshana exam in all India level. Then I am very thankful to God and also to my father and mother for their blessings. Our Math teacher (S.K.Jena) Sir helped me much more for preparation of Dakshana entrance exam. But I have no confidence to get into Dakshana. Then also I appear the exam. Until now I hadn?t even heard of the name of Col R. K. Sharma Sir. When one of our teacher told me at Aug 8, you are selected for Dakshana I never believed it. But, afterwards I confirmed.
I am really very thankful to god. Actually Col R Sharma Sir appeared as a support for a child sinking in the sea of darkness. At that time he was more than god, this is not for me but many students studying in Dakshana. Actually it was the combined blessings and help of my parents, my teacher and Col Sharma Sir and my interest to get into Dakshana which gave me a golden opportunity to study in Dakshana.
I think Dakshana is the most successful institution in India for helping the poor people and building their personality and career with the help of JNV. Now onwards I am giving word to Dakshana I also help the society at most possible way.
