Competitive coaching to prevent youths from going astray in Maoist zone

Not to let educated youths go astray in the tribal belt of Purulia, which used to be a Maoist zone not long back, police have started free competitive coaching so that more and more youths in these backward zones get jobs in government sectors and other fields.
On Sunday, just after inauguration of one such centre at Balarampur Rangadi Bhajanashram High School, 119 students, all graduates, enrolled for the coaching.
People in these zones struggle against abject poverty, yet they study hard and aspire to succeed in life. The Centre will facilitate them polish their knowledge base, hone their skills to do well in the competitive examinations. They will appear in the exams for jobs in Forest, PWD, Tourism, Fire department, Civil Defense, School education and Health sectors. Already the district police has engaged 35 faculty members. There will be classes on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Even the superintendent of police Rupesh Kumar other police officers and BDO Balarampur will coach them.
“We sincerely want that the youths of these so called backward zones of Bengal also come forward and work for the nation building work. Not only Balarampur, we also seek students from Baghmundi and Barabazar of Purulia. Once they are in good positions, they will inspire others to come forward. The lack of job opportunities and education once had put them on wrong paths. Such efforts also restore their faith in the state machinery,” said SP Purulia Rupesh Kumar.
