Abhyanand discloses the names of 91 IIT aspirants

Patna,(BiharTimes): Departing from the past DGP Abhayanand, who also work as friend, philosopher and guide for engineering aspirants, on Saturday announced the names of 91 candidates who would appear from six Super-30 centres run by him in IIT-JEE exam on April 8.

Last year the names were announced prior to the results, but this time he disclosed it before the competitive exam itself. This has been done to maintain transparency and nip in the bud any doubt and suspicion raised by the people.

 

The announcement of names would also take the wind out of the sail of several other competitors in the field who make tall claims. Last year one of them, who had earned an international reputation, was also forced to declare his names before the result.

 

Abhayanand said the Centre for Social Responsibility and Leadership (CSRL) executives visited 91 remote districts in UP, Assam, Maharashtra and National Capital Region (Delhi and adjoining districts), to identify students who had the potential and talent but no money to join the mainstream higher education.

He said Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalayas are the main hunting grounds. “I personally screen candidates before finally giving admission to our centres,” he said.

He said public sector undertakings, like Gas Authority of India Ltd, Power Grid Corporation of India, Indraprastha Gas Ltd and Oil India have been sponsoring the centres at Kanpur, Delhi, Guwahati and Jorhat, respectively. Some private sector companies are also keen to sponsor projects in their respective economic zones.


On the other hand in Gaya, a dedicated team of professionals are teaching the students without charging any fee. “I also interact with students of outside Bihar through videoconferencing,” Abhayanand said.


He advised the parents by stating that money cannot produce IITians. Focused guidance and motivation to hone the potential of a student can. Parents should screen their wards first before sending them to a coaching institute for IIT. That would save them from frustration.
