Mintu Haloi

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

Q1. Introduce your Family to us ?
My father's name is Pradip Haloi. He is a shopkeeper and also a farmer. He is 8th pass, so he wants to give us the best education. My mother's name is Ulupi Haloi. She is a homemaker and supports me and my brother very much. My brother's name is Sujit Haloi, and he is currently pursuing his B.Tech from IIT Guwahati in the M&C branch. I have three uncles—one of them has a government job, and the other two are small businessmen.

Q2. Why should you be awarded the Dakshana Scholarship?
I think I should be awarded the Dakshana scholarship because I have a goal in my life and a strong will to achieve it. I will do whatever it takes to achieve my goal and give back to my parents for what they have done for me. I will work hard and prove my worthiness for this scholarship. If I were not selected for the Dakshana scholarship, I would have attempted entrance tests of other coaching institutions, and if I had received a scholarship there, I would have gone there to prepare for IIT JEE.

Q3. What is your ambition in life?
My ambition in life is to become a successful and responsible engineer and also a reputed man in society. I want to provide for my parents and future generations what my parents could not provide for me. I want my parents to live a wealthy lifestyle in their old age.

Q4. How would you like to contribute to the society and the world when you become a successful?
When I become successful, I want to work to make the lives of poor people easier. I want to make the world a better place where poor people also get opportunities to do something in their lives. I want to bring the world together where everyone can live in peace.

Q5. Describe an incident in your life that has motivated/inspired you to do better
An incident that motivated me happened when I went to JNV for the first time. I was amazed by the facilities students were receiving and was proud to be one of them. I was very motivated to do my best and achieve further success in life.

Q6. Tell us about your interests and hobbies?
My hobbies are singing, reading storybooks, playing cricket, and traveling.
