I'd like to become a Dakshana Scholar and hopefully attend IIT because It is my dream to become a good engineer from a national level college. I am very much interested in Maths and technical field since my childhood. I also wanted to join a join a coaching institute by next year of passing 10th but the expenses of coaching are very much which my parents cant afford. I am very much impressesd by Dakshana when I heard these scheme. It seemed to me a god supporting chance to attend the Dakshana selection test. Two of my senior got selected for Dakshana & It sown a seed of buring desire inside me to be a Dakshana scholar & get IIT cleared. According to my potential & results my parents, relatives & teachers are expecting a lot from me but I think its only the Dakshana that would give a concrete form to those expectations. I am from a middle class villager family & never thought this type of supporting people & organisation to realise the dreams of those students whi have the ability and desire to crack IIT but don?t have money to afford the expensive coaching.
My father & my maternal uncle always support me to go higher and high they fix my target & I achieve. It is only their support which comes as my result.
At last If I got a chance to be a Dakshana scholar I will surely give the right meaning to the efforts of all the concerning supporters & Dakshana as the gift of achieving their dream.
