Government's Free Coaching Scheme Faces Implementation Challenges Amid Modi's Announcement
Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced a plan to provide free online coaching to reduce the financial burden on families and address inequalities in exam preparation. However, a parliamentary committee report reveals limited implementation, with only 2,790 students enrolled against a target of 10,500 over three years and underutilized budgets. The report highlights challenges in effectively delivering free coaching despite government intentions, reflecting broader issues in India's education system and access to quality preparation resources.
