The document discusses the challenges faced by an engineering student who wants to help the underprivileged in society through technical solutions but lacks guidance and funding. He developed plans to help rural communities but his requests for support were ignored. While happy to think of inexpensive machines for the poor, he is frustrated with a system that favors the rich and creates hurdles for the underprivileged. This problem is faced not just by him but by all students who want to use their skills and education to help society rather than prioritizing money and power.
