Rajnandgaon (Chhattisgarh) [India], August 28 (ANI): The Chhattisgarh’s Rajnandgaon district administration launched a new initiative on Thursday, providing free coaching for the National Eligibility Cum Entrance Test (NEET) and Joint Entrance Examination (JEE) to 11th and 12th-grade students preparing for competitive exams.
While speaking to ANI, Rajnandgaon Collector Sarveshwar Narendra Bhure said, “Free coaching for NEET and JEE preparation has started for children in the city to ensure they have access to all facilities. Ten clusters will be formed in the city to train 600 students, specifically those in classes 11th and 12th.”

Bhure added that this initiative aims to provide students with good exposure. “These classes will be organised both online and offline, where teachers are available,” Rajnandgaon Collector added.
A student named Iksha Devangan, who is part of this initiative, said to ANI, “I chose Biology as a subject in 11th class. I am preparing for NEET this year. We are preparing well for this exam, as well as for other competitive exams, and the preparation for the 12th class exam is also being carried out effectively.”

Moreover, another student named Saksham Devangan said, “We attended a free coaching session. Physics, Chemistry, Maths, and even Hindi and English, are being taught to us here, allowing us to prepare not only for NEET and JEE but also for other competitive exams. It is a good initiative because it is completely free…”

He added that these classes are held only on Saturday and Sunday, so their general studies at school are also not being affected.
