TEZPUR, Dec 13: In a major effort to boost secondary education in remote areas, Sonitpur District Commissioner Ananda Kumar Das inaugurated a free coaching camp for Class X students preparing for the High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC) examination. The initiative targets government schools in interior parts of the district, where students face academic disadvantages due to poor connectivity, limited resources, and a shortage of subject teachers.
The newly launched camp at Chengeliamora Higher Secondary School, under the Naduar constituency, will also serve students from Bogijuli Higher Secondary School. A total of 71 Bodo-medium students will receive focused coaching in Mathematics, General Science and English. Three qualified Bodo-medium teachers, one for each subject have been engaged for the camp, with additional honorarium provided by the District Commissioner.
