Malkangiri Launches Free Summer Coaching for NEET, JEE Aspirants

In a bid to bridge educational gaps and support aspirants from underserved communities, the district administration of Malkangiri has launched a free summer coaching programme for Plus II science students preparing for competitive exams like NEET and JEE.

The initiative targets students who have recently appeared for their Higher Secondary Education (HSE) examinations and are aiming to pursue careers in medicine, engineering, and core sciences. Officials said the programme focuses on strengthening conceptual understanding, enhancing problem-solving skills, and building confidence among participants at an early stage.

A significant number of students have already enrolled in the integrated coaching programme. Along with covering the Plus II science curriculum, the sessions include structured guidance on exam strategies, time management, and question-solving techniques tailored for national-level entrance tests.

The programme has been designed keeping in mind the socio-economic realities of the district, where many talented students from farming and tribal backgrounds often lack access to expensive private coaching institutes or educational hubs in urban centres. By offering free academic support locally, the administration aims to level the playing field and ensure equal opportunities for meritorious students.

In addition to academic training, students are being informed about government support schemes such as the Mukhyamantri Medhabi Chhatra Protsahan Yojana. Under this initiative, eligible candidates can avail financial assistance for pursuing higher education, particularly in professional and scientific fields, without placing a burden on their families.

Officials believe that the combined approach of academic coaching and awareness about scholarships will not only improve exam readiness but also encourage students to continue higher education, ultimately contributing to the region’s educational and socio-economic development.
