Free coaching classes for the students of Residential School for Meritorious will start from March 10. This move of the state government aims to ensure that the students may crack competitive exams for higher education.

Under the free coaching programme, the students will get coaching for cracking the prestigious tests like IIT, JEE-IIT, AIIMS, NIT, BITS Pilani, AFMC Pune, CA, Law, CLAT and other courses including all the medical and engineering institutes successfully running in the state.
