Delhi government had launched a free coaching scheme for merit-based students but it seems the scheme has been stopped recently due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Coaching classes under the ‘Jai Bhim Mukhyamantri Pratibha Vikas Yojna’ for this year had started in March 2020. However, the pandemic has created disturbance.
Over 15,000 students in 46 coaching classes under the scheme had been confirmed this year.
But the pandemic has shut down all educational institutes and as online classes are not possible at this point, the classes shall resume soon once the situation improves by September.
The scheme is made available for students who wish to appear for exams by the Union Public Service Commission, Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board, Staff Selection Commission, Railway Recruitment Board, banks and insurance companies.
