To celebrate Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav, Aakash BYJU’S is organizing a major drive towards inclusivity and empowerment of girl students in the arena of private coaching for higher education through ‘Education for All’, a nationwide project to offer free NEET and JEE coaching and scholarships to nearly 2,000 Class VII-XII students from underprivileged families, especially girls.
The launch took place today across India simultaneously at 45 locations with the main event taking place in Delhi. Under the project, all identified students will appear for Aakash BYJU’S National Talent Hunt Exam – 2022 (ANTHE 2022) scheduled to be held between November 5—13 across the country both in online and offline mode. The top 2,000 students would be given free coaching to Aakash BYJU’s NEET and IIT-JEE coaching programmes, based on special considerations.
Commenting on the initiative, managing director of Aakash BYJU’s Aakash Chaudhry, “Being in the industry for so long, we see that the aspirations for medical and engineering education are only growing in our country. Our young minds are in awe of these two fields and the opportunities they afford for self-development and social contributions. However, there are millions of students who cannot afford private coaching that can hugely further their chances of cracking the entrance exams. Through ‘Education for All’ we are doing our bit to lift the scope and expand the opportunities of coaching for professional courses for these students.”
